I believe if young people were the key drivers of decision making we would be seeing more inclusivity at all levels of decision-making. I believe that, as opposed to protecting the powerful few, young people will have a greater focus on devising solutions that support and bring up more diverse populations. I also know that young people are much more likely to invest in the future rather than focusing on short-term, unsustainable options. If young people were the key drivers of decision making, we would have seen significant steps forward on issues such as climate change to protect our future.
