Tricia Yeoh, CEO of the Institute for Democracy and Economic Affairs (IDEAS), and Virak Ou, Founder of Future Forum, join Catherine Tai, Deputy Regional Director and Kendra Brock, Associate Program Officer, from CIPE’s Asia and Pacific team to discuss the role of youth in improving infrastructure transparency and governance. IDEAS and Future Forum run programs with young people that enhance their capacity to evaluate policy and improve transparency, both at the subnational and national level and emphasize the importance of involving youth in policy discussions. This is the second and final part to the Democracy that Deliver’s BRI Monitor mini-series.

In this episode, our guests and hosts discuss how their findings related to BRI monitoring, how the youth play a role in information gathering and research, and more.
