Accepted Answer

Question 5

Why does there need to be an age limit?

Accepted Answer

Being an advocate has no age limit – anyone can be an empowered seatizen. But for training programs like Gen SEA, activities, sessions and modules are more effective if they are created specifically for an age range, rather than a general audience. Generally, people also tend to be more comfortable working with and sharing their experiences, opinions, and ideas with their peers, compared to others way below or above their age.

We decided to have the age range of 18-23 years old for the participants because these are crucial formative years when  young adults go through experiences that will influence their career choices. By participating in Gen SEA, we hope that they will be inspired to dedicate more of their time and talents for conservation efforts and maybe even decide to specialize in fields that are geared towards developmental work.
