  • Summary

  • In this episode of Walk Talk Listen’s "Brews, Bites, and Banter" series, Mahdi Ahmad, a dynamic 19-year-old student and activist, discusses his disappointment with the lack of youth representation at the UN Summit for the Future, despite the critical role young people play in shaping policies for the future. He calls for greater youth involvement in decision-making processes, not just as token participants but as key contributors. Mahdi also stresses the importance of interfaith dialogue and the unifying power of faith in tackling global issues like poverty, climate change, and inequality. As the Global One Youth Champion and Barnet Multi-Faith Youth Forum Facilitator, he advocates for bridging generational gaps through collaboration between youth and elders to address systemic issues and promote economic sustainability. Mahdi is a student at King’s College London, pursuing a degree in History and Political Economy. As an active leader in interfaith work, he serves as a Youth Champion for Global One, the world's only Muslim women-led NGO, and a Facilitator for the Barnet Multi-Faith Youth Forum in London. In addition to his academic pursuits, Mahdi is a passionate advocate for youth inclusion, environmental sustainability, and economic development, regularly participating in global platforms like the UN Summit for the Future. He also runs a podcast called Decolonizing the Narrative, where he explores Islamic and Eastern history with the aim of challenging Eurocentric narratives.
