new generation

The emerging youth

A new generation is a cohort of people or things that represents the latest stage of development, distinct from what came before.

The phrase often marks technological advancement: new generation smartphones, a new generation of fighter jets.

Applied to people, it suggests younger groups with different values or capabilities than their predecessors: a new generation of voters.
