UNESCO MGIEP believes that any strategy aimed at the youth cannot be successful without empowering the youth, thereby encouraging them to speak up. The TAGe is a youth-driven intergenerational dialogue on education that provides a non-hierarchical platform to the youth to interact, discuss and debate critical issues that concern the future, with policymakers.
In this discussion, we would like to explore the interaction between education and the broader societal (social, political, economic) and natural systems (climate, biodiversity and the broader planetary systems).
We hope to see you on Monday, May 10.
