Young and Fearless: Feminist Activism with WAVE Youth Ambassadors Doga Gunduz & Selin Özünaldım

No More Violence Against Women; the podcast of the WAVE Network.

In this podcast, WAVE voices are amplified to give insight on topics such as sexualised violence, online violence, femicides, violence against women with disabilities, youth activism, important legislation such as the Istanbul Convention, and more to highlight the different forms and dimensions of violence against women and girls.

Join us in celebrating International Youth Day (IYD) 2024 with a special podcast episode featuring WAVE Youth Ambassadors Doga Gunduz (Cyprus) and Selin Özünaldim (Türkiye)! This year’s IYD theme, „From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development,“ emphasizes the vital role of digital technologies and innovations in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and showcases the incredible contributions of young people in this transformative journey. In alignment with this theme, Doga and Selin share their personal journeys as feminist activists, discussing the challenges they have faced and the broader goals and impacts of their activism. They highlight the significant role that Gen Z plays in driving change, offering a comprehensive understanding of the dedication and resilience required to make a difference. Their stories are a testament to the power and potential of the younger generation in leading the charge for a gender equal future.

Tune in to be inspired and gain valuable insights into the world of youth activism. Whether you are an aspiring activist or looking for ways to support and navigate your activist journey, this episode is for you!
