Young people are not only the future of agrifood systems, they are the present. Inclusion is more than having a seat at the table, it’s having a voice.​
​
Baliqees Salaudeen-Ibrahim emphasizes that getting a seat at the table should not be an option, it is a standard in the co-creation of solutions for the future of food systems.​

Youth inclusion today will shape food security tomorrow.​
