Session Introduction | The past decade has seen civil society and youth activism rise in defense of democracy and human rights across Asia. Actors in Asian pro-democracy movements have evolved into youth progressive forces, making their voices heard in novel ways beyond discourse. We will reflect on and assess the decade of movements such as Hong Kong's Umbrella Revolution, Taiwan's Sunflower Movement, Milk Tea Alliance, and Myanmar's Civil Disobedience Movement. We will invite leading youth activists and explore their visions for the next decade. We look forward to engaging young people from Thailand, Taiwan, and South Korea in an informal discussion about their activism and on being the next new leaders of democracy and human rights in Asia. |
