Minimum age for an airside pass is 18, there's no age restriction on being a dispatcher.
The usual route to dispatch is getting a job with a ground handling agent either on checkin or the ramp as a baggage handler (ideally checkin so you get to know the systems / processes behind it all) then move down the food chain into dispatch
It is possible to get into dispatch without any aviation experience though, depending on who you know and how desperate they are
