Description

What if honoring young people’s autonomy is one of the most powerful tools we have for creating a regenerative future? In this fireside conversation, we explore how children’s rights, shared power, and youth agency lay the foundation for more collaborative, compassionate, and sustainable societies. Drawing from our work in self-directed education, youth liberation, and culture creation, we’ll be joined by young people to unpack why supporting young people’s agency isn’t “nice-to-have” — it’s essential for planetary flourishing.
