Guest Speakers: We are incredibly fortunate to have Australian Country Director of Global Citizen, Sarah Meredith starting off the event. She will be talking about the importance of youth-led advocacy movements and how you can find ways to be the voice for change.
A little bit about Global Citizen: Global Citizen is a movement of engaged citizens who are using their collective voice to end extreme poverty by 2030. On our platform, Global Citizen, learn about the systemic causes of extreme poverty, take action on those issues, and earn rewards for their actions as part of a global community committed to lasting change.
