3 takeaways I had from the guest lecture with Fabian Debora were:
- It is crucial to build connections for the youth and adults that you are working with beyond the end date of the project. That way, they have a support system and someone to count on, and professional relationships help them foster their career pathways.
- One can bridge the gaps and further stories by creating collaborations between all ages so that the younger generations can learn from and carry on the stories and lived experiences of the elders.
- When everyone who is successful in an impacted community leaves, that results in a brain-drain of sorts in the community, halting the potential of growth within the community rather than the successful people staying and bringing up the whole community.
