Abstract
Youth activism in Eswatini has gained significant traction over recent years as a force for social and political change. The analysis is based on secondary data from official government reports, academic literature, and case studies of notable youth-led initiatives. Youth activists have successfully influenced legislation regarding environmental protection and education policies. This research identifies a growing trend where young Eswatini citizens are leveraging legal frameworks to advocate for societal improvements. Policy makers should consider fostering more youth-led initiatives in governance structures to enhance democratic participation.
