In this episode of Bridging the Gender Gap with Silindile Mlilo, the Atlantic Dialogues Emerging Leader alumna shines a spotlight on Gender Youth and Migration. As a migration scholar and practitioner, Silindile leads us through an exploration of the dynamics shaping the experiences of migrant youth. Through her research and real-world engagement, she unpacks the unique challenges faced by young migrants in both their home and destination countries. Delving deeper, Silindile discusses the importance of intersectionality in policymaking and the urgent need for gender-sensitive approaches within NGOs and governmental programs. Silindile also talks about strategies for creating inclusive environments where the voices of migrant youth are not just heard but valued in shaping policies that impact their lives.
