The youth of today live in the golden digital age marked by increasing online capabilities and social media connectivity. Despite this, many youth still face great challenges in making their voices heard and understood.

An increasing number of youth lack opportunities to constructively engage with society on social issues

Topic:

Young Leaders and Youth Advocacy: Changemakers

Description:

Description: Recent decades have observed a surge in the number of youth that participate actively in addressing global and domestic issues. As youth advocates, they have represented the best interests of their fellow youth, cooperated with senior leaders in their respective communities, and spearheaded resolutions to complex socio-economic issues such as the lowering of the voting age. The DIYC Movement strives to empower future young leaders by helping them consider the value of youth activism and advocacy in the 21st century.
