Empowering Next-Gen Civic Leaders

More than half of the world's population is under 30 years old, yet young people are significantly underrepresented in key policymaking spaces. As the world confronts a multitude of existential challenges, fresh perspectives, greater transparency, and increased accountability are needed inside the halls of power now more than ever.

In the keynote event for Global Ethics Day 2024, this panel discussion and audience Q&A featured young leaders from around the world discussed how we might enhance youth participation and intergenerational collaboration in civic life to tackle the most pressing issues at the intersection of ethics and international affairs.
