Youth4Data Impact Workshop

The Youth4Data Impact Workshop, organized by the Datasphere Initiative as part of the Festival de Datos, offered participants a “hands-on session” to collaboratively design strategies to leverage youth participation in policy dialogues on data.

This dynamic and interactive workshop was designed to not only inform but also actively involve attendees in a pivotal Datasphere Initiative project, the #Youth4OurDataFuture. This project aims to develop awareness-raising and learning campaigns, to showcase the voices and experiences of youth on how data shapes their lives. 

The workshop was structured into two parts: 

1. Involving youth in data and digital policy debates
2. Creating a better digital future

Finally, attendees had the opportunity to share the work they are doing on youth-related issues, to be featured in the upcoming youth4data directory.
