Thirty-five Bhutanese youth across the country came together in Thimphu on 23 and 24 December 2014to discuss issues that they considered the most important to them.
The two-day forum called Youth Symposium organised by the Bhutan Centre for Media and Democracy provided an opportunity for youth to openly discuss the challenges facing their generation and envision possible solutions to them.
The youth discussed how to conduct a dialogue more generally and specific issues of education, employment, and mental health.
Experts on education, employment, and mental health made short presentations to the youth followed by question and answer sessions.
The solutions session of the symposium offered a platform for inclusive participation, enabling the participants to review and explore the issues confronting them and to offer ideas on how to address them.
