Dear policy maker: treat us like participants, not stakeholders

Andre Robb is 22 years old and from the Family Planning Association of Jamaica. In this video he addresses youth participation. He wants to see "something different" happen for his generation, he says, and he wants to be part of that difference. "But the improvements must come from us, not handed to us", he says, stressing that young people shouldn't be treated as merely receiving stakeholders, but as participants. The video was taped during the 'World Youth Conference 2010', in Leon, Mexico.
