Welcome to GYA Perspectives: the Global Youth Alliance's blog! We promote open discussions and encourage varying points of view. Feel free to reply to discussion posts, or start your own! For live discourse, you can reply to others' comments and posts. As this is an open, inclusive blog, we ask that you are respectful of all perspectives. There is zero tolerance for hate speech or any other discriminatory and harmful language. Additionally, as the audience is youth-dominated, please refrain from using profanity or themes related to sexual violence.
