The Young Women’s Movement focused the 2018 Status of Young Women report on young women’s political engagement, representation and activism. 2018 was special – we’ve celebrated 100 years of (some) women’s vote and the Year of Young People 2018 and we also saw amazing movements like #TimesUp and #MeToo led by women across the globe, but we wanted to make sure that voices of young women continue to be heard in the political arena in Scotland beyond 2018!

The report explores questions around young women’s engagement in politics and includes some key actions suggested by the participants that could help to ensure that our political system encourages and facilitates young women’s involvement. This report was written, produced and designed by women aged 35 and under.
