Voices for Tomorrow: Empowering Youth to Challenge Harm & Build a Just Future

This session features a panel discussion with Youth Lab fellows who are advocates focusing on specific issues, including Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), sexual grooming, child marriage, and period equity. The conversation centers on raising awareness of these harmful practices, sharing personal experiences, discussing community engagement strategies, and urging young people to get involved in advocacy efforts to bring about social change. The discussion also identifies poverty and cultural normalization as key factors perpetuating these harms and stresses the need for parental involvement and legal reform. This is a public episode.
