Young voices are the future, yet they remain underrepresented in global decision-making. With more than half the world under 30, sidelining their ideas risks leaving critical challenges like climate change, inequality and technological disruption unaddressed. Youth bring creativity, fresh perspectives and urgency that can reshape policies for a better tomorrow.
International forums, summits and digital platforms highlight their potential, but true empowerment requires structural inclusion in the form of mentoring, funding and genuine listening. Engaging young leaders today ensures solutions that are innovative, fair and long-lasting. Ignoring them is unjust and a threat to progress.
