This was one of the most inspiring sessions by Dr Paola Ricaurte with the room full of critical minds at the Oxford Internet Institute debating how we can defend our future. For those who could not attend the event here is the link: oii.ox.ac.uk/news-events/vi…

Today, we launch our Key policy asks, developed alongside our member services and informed by the young people they work with ⚡️ Our asks propose three steps to protect the mental health and wellbeing of current and future generations 👉 youthaccess.org.uk/keypolicyasks

That last panel was the springboard for so many interesting points and conversation during the Q&A. We will share insights from this in long form shortly.

What an incredible day celebrating creativity in Cambridge! Thank you to everyone who joined us!

'I think that there is the garden in the imagination that gets cultivated and trimmed into these little boxy shapes, these tidy-looking gardens that a child’s education often resembles—you know, topiary, control, control.'

Please read this important essay titled 'Come and Learn' in The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health by @Zvandiri Youth Advocates, based in #Zimbabwe
