Hear from Grace Franco, our steering committee member who traveled to Indonesia a few weeks ago.
At the beginning of November, I had the honour of attending the ASEAN Youth Conference 2023 (AYC). AYC is the annual signature event of the ASEAN Youth Organization that gathers youth across the ASEAN and ASEAN’s partner countries.
It was an invaluable opportunity for me to engage in cultural exchange, global networking, and skill development. We discussed important topics such as the digital economy, working conditions and human trafficking. I had the pleasure of participating in the Socio-Cultural Community Pillar, where my group focused on de-isolating people with disabilities.
Youth and students' voices in facilitating the exchange of ideas and providing solutions for shared global issues are vital.
