Episode 84: Tian Liu - Youth Parliament for Leeds

Tian Liu has been selected as a member of the Youth Parliament Leeds. She advocates for youth voice, climate action and making mental health support accessible. She talks with representatives from the UK government, youth groups and has met with King Charles.

Tian has a passion for social mobility, justice and activism. She aims to understand difficulties within her own community and to provide solutions.

11th October, 2023 was International Day of the Girl and to coincide with that, WOW (Women of the World) launched a brand new festival especially for girls, based on recent research into girls' wellbeing.

The WOW Foundation released its 2023 WOW Young Leaders Directory profiling girls and non-binary young people from across the globe, who are demonstrating extraordinary leadership in activism and leading campaigns for change.

Tian Liu is one of the young leaders that has been chosen.

The featured track on this episode is "Northern Flame" by the fantastic Emma Johnson's Gravy Boat, from her debut album also entitled "Northern Flame" which you can buy on Bandcamp (links below).  The band will next be playing at the Howard Assembly Rooms on Sunday, 26th November.
