Decisions made today will shape the health of future generations, yet young people often have little say in global health governance. Despite being recognised as key players, youth involvement is frequently reduced to symbolic representation rather than meaningful engagement. Youths’ agency is diminished by multilateral and state-driven initiatives, leaving them with limited opportunities to shape global governance and policy. It is important for young people is to recover this agency of what their health is about, and this is critical to achieving true solidarity in global health
