S3 Ep2: Youth Voices in Decision Making

What does peace mean for young people today, over a quarter of a century since the signing of the Belfast/Good Friday agreement? This episode asks how youth voices can be raised to the level of decision makers so that actions can be taken to address issues in education, climate change, health and employment. It explores how youth work provides a platform for discussion on important issues without alignment with party politics, and how a youth vote might support a stronger and more inclusive democratic process that represents the voices of young people who are well informed on the issues that affect them.
