In this episode, we focus on Youth Leadership and talk about the importance of youth participation. On the Youth Leadership for Emerging Future programme example, we discuss how youth can and should be involved in crisis response, humanitarian action, and development. The participants shared about the challenges they identified and how they addressed them while working on their projects. 

You will hear from Agnieszka PŁoska, Youth Changemaking Manager at Ashoka Poland, and Vee Tranova and Vitalina Petrova, participants of the Youth Leadership for Emerging Future Programme. In this initiative, Ashoka, Save the Children, and the Humanitarian Leadership Academy join forces to empower local young leaders and to catalyse systemic changes.
