Move over, traditional politics – Gen Z is reshaping the world’s future with fresh perspectives and digital-first activism. In a special episode of 'The Power of Youth' airing March 11, young leaders from the U.S., Croatia, Poland, and Australia spill the tea
on how their generation is tackling climate action, economic inequality, and global conflicts.
The Global Youth Takeover
From TikTok campaigns to street protests, young people are demanding seats at decision-making tables. Croatian activist Luka Petrić shares how Balkan youth are pushing for green policies, while Sydney-based organizer Priya Nair reveals how Gen Z bridges cultural gaps in multicultural democracies.
Key Political Issues That Matter
No more 'adults-only' policymaking! The panel highlights top priorities for under-30s:
Climate justice now – not in 2050
Affordable education and housing
Inclusive representation across genders and ethnicities
Digital Activism & Civic Tech
Polish tech innovator Marta Kowalski drops truth bombs about AI tools helping youth bypass bureaucratic red tape. 'We’re not just future leaders – we’re current problem-solvers,' says D.C. grassroots campaigner Jamal Carter.
