Can we design experiences in our public schools and spaces that give youth opportunities to make meaningful choices on what impacts them? In Boston, we’ve been actively engaging young people in the redesign of school food (and other daily) experiences. With regulations, costs, logistics and supply chain complexities working against us, can we creatively fight these barriers in order to support youth voice and choice? We want to chat with others thinking critically about futures designed for, with, and by youth.
