Engaging young women is a two-way process, says Catriona Stanfield. She points out the importance of being mindful of how young women's involvement can allow a space for them to contribute meaningfully to organisations while also considering how this experience can contribute to their own personal growth. In this panel, Catriona speaks about young women's issues and experiences in activist work, reflecting on why it is important to engage young women, the key issues they face and finally, effective strategies to address these challenges in order to increase their interest and commitment to participate actively.
