Description: “Voices of the Streets: Caribbean Youth Movements Demand Change” is a vivid, documentary-style account of a rising generation across the Caribbean that refuses to stay silent. From Kingston to Bridgetown, from Belize City to Fort-de-France, young people march, organize, and build new civic networks in response to economic pressure, climate threats, and long-standing gaps in education and public accountability. The series follows their field meetings, street demonstrations, digital organizing, inter-island conversations, and a historic regional forum where youth leaders attempt to shape a shared message for the future. Through calm, precise narration and lived moments on the ground, the story reveals how a fragmented set of local struggles becomes a regional echo calling for dignity, fairness, and long-term resilience. It captures a movement still in formation but already reshaping how the Caribbean understands activism, leadership, and the power of youth.
