In an era where online posts can mobilize thousands and digital campaigns reverberate beyond borders, youth across the globe are rewriting the narratives of civic engagement. From the #EndSARS protests in Nigeria to #BlackLivesMatter in the United States, youth have leveraged digital platforms to demand justice, inclusivity, and accountability. These hashtag movements are not only an expression of frustration; they are strategic deployments of civic power by a digitally literate generation. Through memes, livestreams, viral threads, and grassroots coordination, youth construct alternative public spheres, reframe dominant narratives, and build communities of resistance across geographies. Youth Civic Engagement and Political Participation in Digital Spaces explores how digital activism, youth-led movements, and online campaigns are reshaping civic participation. It examines how young people can leverage digital tools to contest oppression, amplify marginalized voices, and challenge institutional power. Covering topics such as digital tools, civic engagement, and politics, this book is an excellent resource for scholars, researchers, graduate and postgraduate students, policy makers, civil society organizations, educators, curriculum designers, activists, and more.
