São Paulo hosted the II Latin American Youth Nuclear Forum, a gathering that brought together young leaders, strategic institutions, and experts from the nuclear sector.
Representing the Latin American Energy Organization (OLADE), Valentina Licanqueo, consultant, shared the institution’s work in strengthening technical capacities in nuclear energy, emphasizing the role of the Technical Operational Group (GTO) and the support provided to member countries.
During her intervention, Licanqueo underscored the transformative power of youth in the energy sector: “We, as young people, have tools, knowledge, and the responsibility to pass on what we have learned to our communities, in clear and accessible language.”
She also called for fostering international cooperation and replicating best practices to expand youth participation across all energy sectors, from a perspective of diversity, gender equity, and collective learning.
Through this participation, OLADE reaffirms its commitment to empowering new generations and advancing a more sustainable and equitable regional energy agenda.
