Youth voice

Youth protesting climate change

Youth voice refers to the distinct ideas, opinions, attitudes, knowledge, and actions of young people as a collective body.[1] The term youth voice often groups together a diversity of perspectives and experiences, regardless of backgrounds, identities, and cultural differences. It is frequently associated with the successful application of a variety of youth development activities, including service learning,[2] youth research,[3] and leadership training.[4] Additional research has shown that engaging youth voice is an essential element of effective organizational development among community and youth-serving organizations.[5]
