This article investigates the pivotal role of youth in strengthening the rule of law by conducting a comparative study across five countries: Sweden, South Africa, Brazil, India, and Tunisia. It examines the diverse ways in which youth engage with legal and political systems to promote justice, transparency, and accountability. The study identifies significant challenges, including educational inequalities, political exclusion, and socioeconomic barriers, that hinder youth participation. It also highlights the critical role of digital activism in amplifying youth voices. The findings emphasize the necessity of inclusive civic education, youth-centered policies, and equitable access to digital tools to empower youth as drivers of legal reform and democratic consolidation.
