International Youth Day at AUW Laboratory School
AUW Laboratory School celebrated International Youth Day with an engaging session focused on youth voice, leadership, and the power of young people to create positive change in their communities.
Students reflected on key ideas, including the importance of having a voice in school decisions, using social media responsibly to promote positive change, and recognizing that one young person can make a meaningful difference.
As part of the session, students worked in groups to address two real-world challenges: how to make the school more environmentally friendly and how to create a kinder, more inclusive school. Each group developed practical solutions and presented their ideas, demonstrating creativity, collaboration, and thoughtful problem-solving.
The celebration highlighted an important message: when young people are encouraged to speak, participate, and take initiative, they become active contributors to positive change.
