Panel Discussion: Access to Conflict Zones | November 13, 2024
We were proud to collaborate with foraus to host an impactful panel discussion at the University of St. Gallen. The evening brought together humanitarian and development experts — including Mission21, MSF, ICRC, and CYH — and passionate students to discuss the critical challenges of accessing conflict zones and the strategies needed to overcome them. The CYH was proud to be represented on the panel, with Kay von Mérey sharing insights on how we connect young people to the humanitarian world. It was a wonderful opportunity to build a bridge between the audience — mainly students — and the panel of experienced experts.
After the panel, lively discussions continued over drinks, where attendees connected with speakers and each other. A huge thank you to our guest speakers and everyone who joined us—you’ve inspired us all to continue pushing boundaries and striving for a more humane world. Let’s keep the conversation going!
