Voices for Change: Global Youth Advocacy Showcase
Members of the Global Youth Voices participated in a three-day boot camp in Bangkok, convened by GGTC, building their capacity to use AI-assisted tools for stronger tobacco control advocacy and strategic communications. Featuring the impact of the boot camp, participants were challenged to translate their technical learning on four key tobacco control topics into real-world advocacy by producing creative content that drives engagement, raises awareness, and demonstrates the power of youth-led action.

The Global Youth Voices (GYV) is a movement that represents youth coalitions and organizations from across the globe that seek to make the tobacco industry pay for the harms caused to the planet and its people, not only for those in this generation but also future generations. GYV's previous statements and initiatives have been recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) and at the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) Conference of the Parties.
The Global Center for Good Governance in Tobacco Control (GGTC) convenes and provides technical assistance to GYV.
