Generation Peace
Youth organizations leading change
They are standing on the right side of history.
From classrooms to rural centres, from city streets to social feeds, young people and grassroots youth organizations are demanding change, challenging injustice, and driving solutions for a more just and peaceful future. Refusing to be sidelined, with courage and conviction they are proving every day that youth are not just leaders of tomorrow, but changemakers today.
Let鈥檚 get to know them.
