Between October and November 2024, I had the honor of participating in the IYF+30 Conference held in Doha, Qatar, organized by the Doha International Family Institute (DIFI) with the support of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA). This event marked the 30th anniversary of the International Year of the Family and provided a unique platform to explore the theme “Family and Contemporary Megatrends.” Throughout the conference, legislators, researchers, leaders, NGOs, and young people from around the world engaged in discussions about the impact of “megatrends”—from climate change to urbanization and technological transformations—on family well-being. The involvement of young participants was especially central, based on the idea that we are the future “architects” of family dynamics and social change. My sincere thanks go to QatarDebate Center for fully supporting this experience, and to the other young participants who shared their perspectives, helping me to see the global picture through a truly multidisciplinary lens. Engaging with such a passionate, knowledgeable group enriched me with new insights and a deeper understanding of the complex issues at hand. I look forward to contributing to future events in Doha and to continuing this journey toward making a positive, inclusive impact on people’s lives.
