Indigenous Youth

Indigenous youth are young people who belong to the original inhabitants of a region, such as Native Americans, First Nations, Inuit, Métis, Aboriginal Australians, or other Indigenous groups worldwide. They often navigate the balance between cultural traditions and modern influences. Indigenous youth may face unique challenges like preserving their language and traditions, overcoming social and economic disadvantages, and advocating for their communities. Supporting their well-being, education, and cultural identity is essential for fostering resilience and ensuring they have opportunities to thrive while honoring their heritage.
