On December 23, 2025, youths came together for a serious talk about education. The focus was language and its place in learning. People spoke about studying in languages they do not use at home and how that affects understanding, confidence, and participation. The discussion was open and real, with shared experiences from different backgrounds. It was clear that language is not a small detail in education. It decides who follows, who struggles, and who is heard.
