Abstract

Youth have a critical role in the conservation and sustainable management of natural resources, as highlighted in the article “Youth and Natural Resource Management: Empowering the Next Generation for a Sustainable Future.” It explores a number of topics, including youth empowerment and leadership development, youth empowerment and technology, young involvement in conservation programs, and environmental education. The entry highlights the transformative power of adolescents and advocates for their active involvement in crafting a resilient and sustainable future by drawing on a multitude of research and projects. Young people’s enthusiasm, creativity, and resolve can be harnessed to produce creative solutions, improve intergenerational collaboration, and strike a harmonious balance between the protection of natural resources and human advancement. By making investments in youth now, the foundation is created for the future generations to build on.
