Young People Are Tackling Systems Change! A Conversation with Nolita Mvunelo, Matías Lara and Vanessa Terschluse
As I often say we radically underestimate young people and what they are capable of. They are asking to be involved in the critical conversations about systems change. And not only that they are also building their own capabilities for and with each other about how to engage with it's systemic issues. So it's a huge pleasure this week to be speaking with Nolita Mvunelo, Matías Lara and Vanessa Terschluse who have taken it upon themselves as the 50percent to gather a collection of insights to enhance young people's understanding of systems and how they move and change. They have published the Young Person's Guide to Systems Change.
