How can mentorship programs lead to fostering young agents of change? How can youth-led approaches to leadership challenge traditional institutional tropes? Or—more succinctly—how do we empower young leaders without placing an unfair burden on them?
This panel will showcase youth-led initiatives grounded in broader justice frameworks, featuring visiting professor Magalie Quintal Marineau and Christine Qillasiq Lussier of la Chaire-réseau de recherche sur la jeunesse (CRJ), as well as Adama Kaba, Mariam Untiveros Métellus, and Jessyarth Lopez Bonet (Harambec Freedom School).
When: Tuesday, February 3, 2026, from 12 – 2 p.m
Where: 1400 De Maisonneuve Blvd. W., Room LB 145
