In this dynamic panel, YPFP Tokyo invites young academics to share their research and findings on multiple topics, from sustainable development to migration and integration. In the light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global border-closing events, it is now more important than ever for the youth to step forward and pave the way to a new kind of digital knowledge sharing that will lead to more effective global support programs and policy-making processes. Join our panel discussion to hear how this gathering of young individuals sees the world of today and how they intend to review commitments and develop new strategies for a better world of tomorrow by connecting the world of academia with wider audiences.
