Zooming Out: Youth and Foresight Beyond Borders

It's time to zoom out !!!This week, we want to connect you to the bigger picture, the multilateral sphere, where future generations and foresight aren't just abstract afterthoughts, but vibrant igniters of critical shifts in policy and global systems. Together with our guest, Shai Naides, Chief of Youth Engagement and Strategy at UNICEF Innocenti, we dive into the role of intergenerational perspectives in reshaping our democratic systems of governance. We take a look at some of the guiding principles of meaningful youth engagement and discuss models that don't just amount to tokenism, but real policy impact.Keen to learn more about research, foresight and child rights?
