Voices of Youth

“Young people today are lazy, ignorant and do not think deeply about things.” Do you believe this is an accurate description of adolescents and young people? Or do you believe these are stereotypes endlessly repeated by adults and media? The publication “Adolescence – Beyond the Stereotypes” invites you to explore the diverse experiences of what it is like to be young in the world through a series of essays and messages submitted by adolescents all around the world. We also invite you to share with us your own experiences with stereotypes and to comment on the essays presented. What can we do to move beyond the stereotypes?
