-----------------------------------
With the rise of the ageing population in East Asian countries, many have come to question the role that young generations will come to play in the next few years. It is without doubt that frustrations amongst the youth have increased from the rise in cost of living to policies catered towards the elderly. This event, hosted by the Centre for Japanese Research attempts to set the stage for further discussion by providing an open platform for university students in Asia and Canada to contribute to talks regarding their own personal experiences and opinions on youth participation in politics, youth activism in social justice movements and how education plays into nurturing the youth. University students located in Asia and North America were invited to take part in this open discussion.
