What is or should be the role of youth in international affairs? Are the interests of the younger generation different from or the same as those of older generations? Some ideas.

Vocabulary – not ‘the youth’ but ‘youth’ (‘the youth’ is one young man – plural ‘youths’). If you use the word to mean the same as ‘young people’ it is without ‘the’ and normally takes a verb in the plural. ‘Today’s youth are playing a more active role in international relations.’
