The videos show youth reflecting on some of the concepts explored at the conference, including the role of mutual support and assistance in community building and the role of youth in society.

One youth commented on the importance of mutual support, expressing that “having support from others who have different experiences can really help transform your vision.”

“In my community, I think we need this mutual support to extend beyond our small meetings, to create a community spirit and make it grow.”
