In our last episode we talked about active citizenship and the power to change. Our Danish friend Johannes explored the subject of young people’s right to vote…which is something that he feels very strongly about.

But the power to change is a whole lot bigger than our right to place a vote for a party every few years…and sometimes change comes in different forms and volumes. Some change happens suddenly, like the big splash you get when you throw a rock into the water. The big splash is one thing. But then…we have the ripples. It’s the opposite of the big splash and we will never know the impact of the ripples that flows from something you heard or were inspired by. It’s a more unknow and discrete kind of change….But sustainable…and so profound.

Just think about Greta Thunberg and how from one day deciding to go on a Global Climate strike she has started a “youth quake” were an estimated 1,6 million young people in 125 different countries took to the streets, demanding world leaders to take climate action – now. All this started with her sitting down peacefully every Friday, a few years ago. We do not know today, where this is going to end. This episode is a tribute to everyone who has ever had the spine to speak their mind, even when it’s difficult…and the ripple effects that flows from your courage.

A few weeks ago, we met up in Denmark and discussed different issues that we feel strongly about, like eduaction. There was an ocean of topics in school that needs to be addressed…and we will…but on other platforms than this episode. Because what it all boiled down to, is a genuine wish from us teens to feel cared for and seen for who we are. This will be a big focus in this episode.

Enjoy!
