Youth face significant challenges in this day and age, and the future is set to get tougher for them amid the environmental, economic and pandemic crises.

 

The Changemakers Podcast features talks with inspiring young leaders in Hungary. We discuss the greatest challenges that youth face today, what their youth organisations are doing regionally to support young people, and how they are collaborating with others to help co-create systems change in Hungary and the broader region.

 

If you are a student, graduate or young professional interested in professional development and learning how to be a changemaker in your local community in Hungary, then this podcast is for you!
