As panel #1 bring out the vast intergenerational ground on youth well-being issues and policies advocacy, this panel take a step further and deeper to return the attention to the people: What is the human experience of being a youth advocate, and how can we extend the care and love from those we advocate for, to ourselves, and to the stakeholders older than us that only as human as us?

This panel builds on panel #1 to spark a genuine dialogue with a diverse group of advocates, from veterans advocates to newcomers, from accomplished U.S. advocates to everyday European youth to explore intersection of personal experiences and policy advocacy. The goal is to refocus attention on our shared humanity, transcending labels of "youth," "stakeholders", "advocate," or "struggling individual." and highlight we are all only human, and together we make ourselves and the world a bit happier.
