On this edition of Century: Strengthening Young People, the Family,
and Society. Surviving political and environmental crises is
challenging for everyone but particularly for young people. Addressing
these challenges requires a comprehensive approach that combines
evidence-based interventions with grassroots initiatives. The Women\'s
Federation for World Peace recently organized a panel to discuss these
issues and approaches to address them, entitled Strengthening the
Resilience of Youth in Challenging Times: The Role of Family and
Society. On this week\'s show we\'re going to hear portions of that
discussion, including presentations by Dr. Aala El-Khani, a
humanitarian psychologist and consultant for the UN Office on Drugs
and Crime; Anna Tarasenko, a neuroscientist and individual research
consultant with the UN Office on Drugs and Crime; and Kefilwe Lebepe
with the Women\'s Federation for World Peace Young Professionals
chapter.
