Lola's talk will discuss the impact of youth representation in media, advocating for authentic storytelling as a tool to reshape how society perceives young people and to empower youth voices in public discourse.
Lola Fisher is an advocate for youth representation in media and is the CEO of Create Happy Media, the largest youth-led media platform in Aotearoa. Growing up in the digital age, Lola noticed online platforms often misrepresented the voices of the younger generation. She decided to co-found a digital media platform, Create Happy Media to amplify youth voices and give young journalists a chance to share their perspectives and stories. Now working full time on Create Happy, Lola continues to redefine what it means to tell stories, firmly believing in the power of community, working hard to create spaces where young journalists can contribute meaningfully. Her TEDx talk will explore the power of youth storytelling, and how genuine representation can shape public perception and give young people not just a seat at the table, but a say in the conversation. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
