Tune in today for the first episode of the Trade for Peace Podcast Youth series! This series has been launched as part of Trade for Peace: Future Leaders, a platform dedicated to increasing youth engagement on the topics of trade and peace by raising awareness about youth involvement in conflict and the essential role they can play in building peace through trade.
But why are we focusing on youth? We now have the largest youth population in human history, with a third living in fragile and conflict affect states (FCS). Youth are often most affected by conflict but also most marginalized during post-conflict reconstruction. There is much to be done across the board to address youth exclusion, especially in the fields of trade and peace.
Join Anais, Suraya and Nour from the WTO Trade for Peace team as they discuss how fragility and conflict generate particular challenges for both states and youth, and brainstorm what Future Leaders can do about them.

- Anais Wardak, Focal Point for the Political Engagement & Partnerships and the Outreach & Public Dialogue Pillars, Trade for Peace Programme, WTO
- Suraya Ahmadi, Co-focal Point, Trade for Peace Programme, WTO
- Nour Kabbara, Co-focal point, Trade for Peace Programme, WTO
