Establishment of the Strategic Youth Board for GUTS
We are thrilled to announce the establishment of our Strategic Youth Board.
This board has been specifically created to give young people a voice in shaping the agenda of GUTS and to integrate their insights, ideas, and concerns into the vision and plans of our organization.
Board members:
-
Lotte Prins, Student, Chair of the National Youth Council
-
Chris de Nijs, Student, Board Member of Lieve Mark

Aykan Guzelkucuk, HBO Student

The Strategic Youth Board consists of a diverse group of young people who are eager to be actively involved in the societal impact of research on and with youth. They will help us better respond to the needs and aspirations of the younger generation while bringing new perspectives for innovative solutions.
The board will meet regularly to collaborate with scientists, ensuring that the right questions are being asked and that research outcomes find their way into society and policy. Through this collaboration, we aim to give young people a stronger voice in processes that directly affect them.
We are confident that the Strategic Youth Board will make a valuable contribution, and we look forward to the fresh ideas and energy its members will bring.
