Young people are the future! (No shocker here). But let's be honest, oftentimes, young people don't get to be in the decision-making spaces. Less resources, less connections, less invitations coming their way.

They will gain new skills, share their perspectives, learn from WSA winners, and most importantly, make connections that might open new doors and opportunities.    ✨ The challenge: raise 15 000 €. This will cover the travel costs for 10 Youth Ambassadors from different regions, backgrounds, and expertise.    💡 How you can help: ✅ Contribute—every single Euro counts! ✅ Spread the word in your network 📢 You can be part of leading change - let’s harness the power of community, walk the talk, and bring these incredible purpose-driven young people to the stages and spaces where they should be! 👉 https://lnkd.in/epXsSpsW #YouthLeadership #GlobalImpact #SupportYouth
