This week, I'm joined by a world-renowned change-maker and speaker from Bali, Indonesia, Melati Wijsen. She is the Founder of ‪@youthtopiaworld5844‬ ‪@byebyeplasticbags1562‬

In the first half, we discussed how YOUTHTOPIA integrates an intergenerational approach to bridging different generations for collaborative actions, how growing up as an island girl and being immersed in nature cultivated her strength to mobilize people and act with high agency, and the importance of inner work in an ever-noisy world.

In the latter half, Melati underscored how parents and educators could create safe spaces for young change-makers to take action, the toggle between hope and mental frustration at high-level climate conferences, and sharing the concern of youthwashing in the next decade of change.
