As democracies around the world face increasing pressure, from voter suppression and disinformation to disengagement and distrust, young people are stepping up to defend and reimagine civic life. This session examines how youth political and civic engagement is not only a sign of hope, but a strategic response to democratic backsliding.
Together, we’ll explore how young people are organizing movements, influencing policy, and demanding representation in systems that have historically marginalized their voices. We’ll dive into the data and real-world examples that show how youth-led action can reinvigorate democratic institutions and create a more equitable future.
Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of what drives youth civic participation, the systemic barriers they face, and how educators, organizations, and institutions can support their leadership in meaningful, lasting ways.
This session is a must-attend for anyone committed to youth empowerment and the future of democracy.
