youth Activism: resistance and radical reform
Saturday, April 10th, 2021
More about the 2021 theme:
The theme "Resistance and Radical Reform" is most pressing and relevant now more than ever,
as youth are coming together across the world to organize in support of causes and movements
such as the Black Lives Matter movement and the fight for environmental awareness, among many others.
Youth are demanding that broken, oppressive systems be rebuilt and reformed.
At the 2021 Youth Peace Conference, students will gain resources on how to peacefully organize,
resist injustice, and create change within their communities.
