Youth, Peace and Security: Why Youth Must Lead Africa’s Peace Efforts

Season 1 Episode 7

In this inspiring episode of the Africa Within Podcast, we sit down with Wevyn Muganda, a dynamic Kenyan expert on Youth, Peace, and Security (YPS) in Africa. She discusses young people's vital role in peacebuilding, the challenges they face in accessing decision-making spaces, and the urgent need for meaningful youth inclusion in security and governance processes.

From grassroots activism to continental leadership, we explore what the future of youth leadership could and should look like across Africa. This episode is a powerful reminder that youth are not just beneficiaries of peace — they are its architects.

Tune in now to hear real stories, powerful insights, and bold visions for a more peaceful and youth-driven Africa.
