It elucidates the mechanisms through which youth-driven initiatives contribute to global environmental Sustainability and societal transformation, drawing from empirical verification and theoretical frameworks. Furthermore, this paper discusses the implications for research, policy formulation, and practical implementation in harnessing the potential of youth as drivers of innovation and Sustainability. It underscores the significance of recognizing and fostering youth as critical stakeholders in shaping a global, more durable, and environmentally conscious future.
