À propos de cet audio

Because we don’t need 100 perfect activists — we need millions of imperfect ones. – Clover Hogan Welcome to The Imperfect Activist, a brave space for youth, by youth, where we unpack the raw, real, and sometimes uncomfortable truths of activism, advocacy, and changemaking. From environmental justice to social equity, we dive into the “wicked problems” shaping our generation while navigating the very real challenges of growing up and stepping into our power. Through honest conversations, hot takes, and tough questions, we aim to strengthen our collective impact and redefine true solidarity. Whether you’re an experienced organiser, curious newcomer, or an ally eager to support youth-led change — this podcast is for you. Because creating change isn’t about being flawless. It’s about showing up, learning, and growing - together.Copyright 2025 All rights reserved. Politique Sciences politiques

  • Resilience in Nepal – Youth at the Heart of Change (with Samita)
    Oct 3 2025

    In this tenth episode of The Imperfect Activist, Lucy travels (virtually) to Nepal to speak with Samita, a youth advocate and changemaker witnessing history unfold firsthand.

    Together, they unpack the 2025 Gen Z protests - a youth-led uprising sparked by a government social media ban that quickly grew into a broader movement against corruption, inequality, and political failure.

    Samita shares her insights from the ground, offering a raw and hopeful look at what it means to be young and resilient in a country on the edge of transformation. From the risks activists face to the rise of digital resistance, this episode explores how young Nepalis are challenging power, reimagining leadership, and placing youth voices at the center of change.

    This is a story of protest, persistence, and possibility - and a reminder that resilience doesn’t always look perfect, but it does look powerful.
