SUMMARY:Global Migration and Youth Leadership in the Pursuit of Freedom
DESCRIPTION:According to the UNHCR\, 89.3 million people around the world were forced to flee their homes as a result of persecution\, conflict or violence in 2021. That figure reached 103 million in mid-2022. Among them are nearly 27.1 million refugees\, around half of whom are under the age of 18. While these young people require support\, they are also uniquely capable of effective change and leadership of mobilizing civic engagement in their home communities and in the world. Yet\, the odds often seem to be stacked against them. What can be done about this? This panel tries to piece together a framework for the role of youth leadership in systemic change. By using three countries—Afghanistan\, Belarus\, Myanmar—as case studies\, the panelists representing these countries will address the challenges and opportunities of the generation that will be leading important changes to achieve the freedom for their countries.  \n\n\n\nAn accompanying reception with food and refreshments will follow the panel to give students an opportunity to engage with the panelists.  \n\n\n\nPlease RSVP here. \n\n\n\nPanelists \n\n\n\nMANASI SUBRAMANIAM: Editor-in-Chief\, Penguin Random House India (Yale World Fellow 2022)  \n\n\n\nMINAMI TSUBOUCHI: Founder\, BEYOND Tomorrow (Yale World Fellow 2022)  \n\n\n\nMOHAMMAD “MUSA” MAHMODI (Afghanistan): Human Rights Lawyer (Yale World Fellow 2020)  \n\n\n\nANDREI KUREICHIK (Belarus): Playwright\, director\, and civil activist (Yale World Fellow 2022)  \n\n\n\nDAVID MOE (Myanmar): Postdoctoral Associate\, Southeast Asian Studies\, Yale University
