Speaking & Moderation
Morris regularly contributes to regional and continental policy dialogues, often wearing multiple hats – youth advocate, gender specialist, EAC resource person, moderator, and "translator" between technical language and lived experience.
"Youth participation must move beyond tokenism. Regional frameworks must remain answerable to those they claim to serve."
Morris regularly speaks at regional and continental forums, bringing practitioner insights to policy discussions on youth, gender, children, social protection, and peace & security.
