In 2024, Seattle International Foundation’s CAMY Fund celebrated 10 years of supporting youth changemakers in Central America and Mexico. This is a moment to pause and express gratitude for the courage, inspiration, and creativity that organized youth bring to their work, as well as for the opportunity to support them. In this session, speakers will explore how they have built bridges without blueprints, adapting with flexibility and confidence to support youth in their struggles. Panelists will discuss how philanthropy can and must evolve to be a true ally in creating deep social change, moving away from rigid structures and responding to the complex realities of the region.

This session will celebrate the work of diverse and courageous youth who propose creative strategies to create a more dignified society. Join this dialogue to learn how to construct pathways and open new avenues between philanthropy and youth changemakers in Central America.
