Theme: Remembering the Protesters! Moving Forward from Discrimination

Today's session was focused on finding ways to preserve the memories alive and sought solutions for the future of human rights cities where no one is excluded.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Beijing Platform for Action (BPFA). The participants of the session shared policies and issues on a regional and national level seeking new measures that all human rights cities could follow to achieve gender equality and women empowerment.

The session presented several case studies from countries such as Finland and Germany, with experience of youth political education and political engagement especially that the voting age has been recently lowered in South Korea to the age of 18. Implications, remaining tasks and methods to enable young voters to lead to positive changes, were also debated.
