In this episode of YEPs on the Ground, we’re joined by Lisa Jarmuth, a Young Elected Politician from Germany, whose work centers on social inclusion, gender equality, and empowering underrepresented voices in local and European politics.

From her role on the ground to her impact at the European Committee of the Regions, Lisa shares her thoughts on the structural barriers women and LGBTQIA+ communities face, the importance of mentorship and mental health initiatives, and the urgent need for inclusive policymaking. She also weighs in on the call for a binding EU-wide ban on conversion practices - and why she believes decisive action is long overdue.

This is a powerful, heartfelt episode on advocacy, allyship, and what it really takes to build communities where everyone belongs.
