Encouraging students to take on leadership roles in community service projects can build on the legacy of Gen Z’s activism.
Bangladesh is the latest in a series of youth-driven uprisings that have shaken countries in Asia and Africa this year.

As you begin to lose yourself in the stream of internet lobotomisation, you will realise that you can’t send a single text anymore without at least three accompanying emojis that make no sense contextually, and you’ll wonder what you've become.
Bangladesh has recently witnessed extraordinary times. In July 2024, what began as a student movement demanding a restructuring of the government job quota system escalated into a countrywide mass movement for equality, justice, and democratic freedom.
From values, work ethics, and communication styles, to even their appearance, Gen Z see things from a different perspective.
