Nobel Peace Talk: Gen Z – A democratic life buoy?
Is the next generation our strongest defense against democratic decline? Listen into the recording of this Nobel Peace Talk, where we explored the power of youth in shaping the future of democracy.
Researcher Amalie Nilsen from Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO) opened the event with fresh insights from her new PhD thesis, The Protest Paradox: The Role of Mass Mobilization in Promoting and Challenging Liberal Democracy. She’ll unpack what democratic backsliding means today, and why youth movements matter more than ever.
You’ll hear directly from young voices connected to UWC Red Cross Nordic, a unique college that brings together 200 students from over 80 countries each year in Fjaler. Rooted in Red Cross principles and Nordic values, these students live, learn, and grow together across cultures, and many become powerful voices for change.
Through personal stories, current students and alumni will share how they engage in activism, past and present. Expect meaningful conversations, new perspectives, and real stories of courage, doubt, and action.
