the aspect:

20-02-2023 • 45 mins

The activism aspect: today I'm joined by the International Youth Think Tank's Managing Director & Co-Founder Urban Strandberg, and three Youth Fellows, Mahek Bhatia, Michele Castrezzati & Philippine Dutailly. We talk about the accessibility of sustainable democracy, the IYTT's global engagement, and why it's so important to avoid being dull.

Media recommendations:

Mahek's: Knock Down The House (available on Netflix).

Michele's: I Wish This Was - a participatory project infusing street art and urban planning.

Philippine's: Cowspiracy and Seaspiracy (available on Netflix); Fourteen Wolves: A Rewilding Story, by Catherine Barr & Jenni Desmond.

Urban's: The Death Letter Project (started by the Australian creator & photographer Tina FiveAsh, originating as a variant in North Carolina); Letters from an American, by Heather Cox Richardson.
