Description

Samantha Sithole, Gretchen Walters, Philile Mbatha, and Frank Matose wrote a 2024 paper on youth roles in global conservation decisions. Young people shape and will inherit choices about nature. Yet they are often shut out of the rooms where those choices are made, due to money and political barriers.

The paper uses the World Conservation Congress and a recent youth strategy from the IUCN as its lens. That strategy, covering 2022 to 2030, pulled big green groups into the debate. The authors ask how young people reach such forums and what blocks them. Justice research frames their account. Real youth voice, they argue, needs more than a seat at the table.
