If there’s one thing we know for certain, it’s that youth voices need to be heard!
The #RisingYouth network consists of individuals from coast-to-coast that hold enormous amounts of knowledge and have built unique ways to positively impact their communities. This panel will be bringing together #RisingYouth Alumni alongside community experts to discuss their Creative Approaches to Social Change.
This panel is committed to centering youth experts, as we know that youth experiences and perspectives are incredibly valuable yet oftentimes overlooked. Youth will chat with community experts as a way to increase the dialogue around important social, environmental, and economic issues and demonstrate the need to highlight youth opinions concerning these pressing topics.
This unique event structure allows each panelist 15 minutes to share their expertise. During this time, speakers will learn from each other and raise questions they may have as a way to promote dialogue. We will then move into a panel discussion and dive deeper into each panelists’ approach to social change.
