SUMMARY:Youth Perspectives on Science Policy
DESCRIPTION:Register Now! \nThis panel brings together youth and early-career voices to explore how Canada’s science\, technology\, and innovation ecosystem can better reflect the realities\, aspirations\, and lived experiences of the next generation. Grounded in key insights and learnings that emerged from the STEM Youth Summit & Expo 2026\, this panel will center youth perspectives and will examine how existing structures may miss or overlook diverse voices. The discussion will explore gaps between training and opportunity\, barriers to participation\, and the role of youth in shaping more inclusive and forward-looking policies. By bringing youth voices directly into the conversation\, this panel aims to reimagine a policy landscape where young people are key contributors to Canada’s innovation future. \n  \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_i2wOzd6LQ5aPfvD3I9SEXw
