SPD Student Champions Youth Voice and Mental Health at UN Youth Forum 2026
NEW YORK, USA — The Social Policy and Development (SPD) program is proud to announce that our very own Ms. Nattanicha Kattiyavara recently represented the global youth community at the United Nations Youth Forum 2026.
Serving as an official representative from the UN Youth Office Reference Group, Ms. Nattanicha took to the international stage to bridge the gap between grassroots activism and high-level policy making. During her primary address, Ms. Nattanicha shifted the spotlight toward a rarely discussed reality of activism: advocacy fatigue.
The SPD community congratulates Ms. Nattanicha on her bravery and her commitment to ensuring no young person is left behind in the global dialogue.
