The Youth UPRISING That Ousted a Government

October 27, 2026 • Produced by: Rosa Bowden

Two years ago, a concrete canopy collapsed at a train station in Serbia and killed 16 people. On Sunday, the students who protested over it helped bring down a party that’s been in power since many of them were in primary school.

Today, we’ll unpack how youth-led demonstrations mobilised to form a political movement, ultimately becoming a government-in-waiting, and why the rest of Europe is watching.

Host: Emma Gillespie and Zara Seidler
