From tobacco to cryptocurrencies and from stakeholder capitalism to cannabis, new threats to consumer choice are cropping up everywhere you look. That’s why Young Voices created the Consumer Choice Fellowship, which sees some of our best writers stand up for civil liberties and common sense in outlets like the Washington Examiner and the American Spectator. Read more on our fellowships page.

Also launched in 2022, Young Voices created the Dissident Project which features a roster of speakers who grew up in authoritarian and socialist countries. Dissident Project speakers travel to high schools across the US at no cost to educate students on their experiences and the danger of abandoning the ideas that made America prosperous.

In partnership with the American Conservation Coalition, Young Voices launched the Energy & Environment Fellowship to champion free-market environmentalism and make the case for saving the planet and conserving the natural world in a pro-liberty, forward-looking way. Fellows achieved numerous publications in outlets including the National Interest, the Daily Caller and the New York Sun. Read more on our fellowships page.

Young Voices launched 2 new programs in 2022 focussed specifically on bringing new voices for liberty into our network. The Regional Leaders program empowers Young Voices alumni to reach out to prospective contributors across the US, and Young Voices Europe represents our first ever expansion into continental Europe, following the success of Young Voices UK.
