Descripción: Good mental health is the foundation for every young person to learn, connect, and contribute meaningfully to society. However, today’s youth face a uniquely challenging climate, navigating intense political polarization and the rapid rise of AI-driven disruption. These issues often threaten emotional well-being and can be detrimental to personal growth. Drawing on the UN Youth Office’s 2025 Flagship Initiative, this session will show how poverty, education, and decent work shape well-being, especially in light of technological advances and how that affects young people everywhere.
