🌍 Happy belated International Youth Day! Yes, the International Youth Day was yesterday, but the message is too important for me not to post it :) Although International Youth Day was yesterday, today we reflect on the powerful role that youth can play in addressing both global and local issues, especially in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals. The question is: What is the most effective way for young people to contribute to these causes? The answer lies in two words: Communication and Actions. 🔊 Communication: It's about raising awareness, speaking up in every possible corner, and bringing attention to the challenges our communities face. By spreading accurate information and instilling belief that change is possible, we can inspire others to take action. 🚀 Actions: Change doesn’t always start with big steps; more often, it begins with small actions in our own communities, among our friends and families. These small steps can grow into larger movements in schools, colleges, and universities, creating a ripple effect that leads to significant impact. Change is needed today, and we, as the youth, have the power to make it happen. We are not the last generation on our planet, and just a reminder "There is NO Earth 2.0" , this is why, and at least becasue we are human beings, it's our responsibility to make the world a better place for everyone, everywhere. Together, we can drive the change that is so desperately needed. Comment "+" if you're ready  to drive the change! #InternationalYouthDay #YouthPower #SustainableDevelopment #ClimateAction #EducationForAll #ChangeMakers

🌍 Happy International Youth Day!🌍 As a young person navigating the digital age, I've witnessed firsthand the incredible opportunities that digital pathways can offer. From accessing global knowledge to connecting with peers and professionals worldwide, digital technologies have opened doors that were once unimaginable. However, the promise of a sustainable future through digital pathways remains out of reach for many, especially young people in rural areas who face significant barriers due to the digital divide. This divide hinders their ability to engage, innovate, and contribute to global conversations. As we recognize the Global Digital Compact annexed in the Pact for the Future, let's commit to creating a world where every young person, regardless of their background, can access and benefit from digital opportunities. Once Again Happy International Youth Day, Let us continue to embrace "Digital Pathways to a Sustainable Future". #InternationalYouthDay #DigitalInclusion #SustainableFuture #YouthEmpowerment #DigitalDivide #GlobalDigitalCompact African United Nations Youth Delegates UNA UGANDA SDGs Kenya Forum

International Youth Day is celebrated annually on August 12th. It was first designated by the United Nations General Assembly in 1999, following a recommendation by the World Conference of Ministers Responsible for Youth. The day is meant to draw attention to the challenges and issues facing young people worldwide, as well as to celebrate their potential as partners in today's global society. Each year, International Youth Day has a specific theme that focuses on a particular area of concern. The theme for International Youth Day 2024 is "From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development." This theme highlights the key connection between digitalization and accelerating the progress of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), emphasizing the crucial contributions of young people in this transformative process. The day serves as an opportunity for governments, youth organizations, and other stakeholders to highlight the contributions of young people to societal development and to promote their active participation in decision-making processes at all levels. #international #youth #day #skills #innovations #skills #india #digital #august #2024

Today, we are celebrating International Youth Day, which is dedicated to acknowledging the limitless energy and potential of young people in driving positive change. This year's theme, "From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development," highlights the crucial role of technology in empowering youth to create a more 🌍 inclusive, 💰 prosperous, and ☮️ peaceful world.   At UNFPA WCARO, we recognize that digital connectivity is not just a tool, but a catalyst for progress. Young people in West Africa and around the world are committed to advocating for their rights and developing innovative solutions for a sustainable and peaceful future. We understand that young people are disproportionately affected by conflict, inequality, and climate change.   On this International Youth Day, let's celebrate the creativity and resilience of young people. Let's reaffirm our commitment to providing them with the tools, resources, and platforms they need to thrive in the digital age. Together, let's work towards a world where every young person has the opportunity to 🤝 connect, 🎨 create, and contribute to a more just, fair, and sustainable future for all. #YouthDay #DigitalSkills #Youth4Peace #UNFPAWCARO
