A Seat at the Table: Discussion & Mixer
Join us for an evening of connection and celebration at A Seat at the Table: Rooftop Mixer, kicking off an exciting joint research initiative by Youth Climate Collaborative and Frontline Resource Institute, in partnership with Penn State University’s Global Youth Storytelling and Research Lab, and others.
This new research project will explore models of intergenerational collaboration and meaningful youth participation across 100 organizations worldwide, from NGOs to governments and corporations. With a major case study and best practices report set for release in Fall 2026, the initiative will also produce three dynamic databases to match decision-making bodies with youth and experienced professionals, and advocate for policy shifts that expand access for young leaders.
Come learn more about this exciting project, share your experiences serving in governance bodies, and mingle with fellow changemakers across generations. The evening will feature an open bar, vegetarian hors d'oeuvres, lively breakout discussions, and rooftop vibes to spark new conversations and partnerships.
Let’s build bridges across generations, institutions, and movements - together!
