Youth Voices! Global youth shared their views on "Together For A Better Future"
On August 12th, the 2024 World Youth Development Forum opened in Beijing. The Forum is co-hosted by the All-China Youth Federation, the United Nations in China, and the organizing committee of the forum. A "Youth Voices" video, in which young people from different countries shared their views on the challenges faced by youth and the youth’s contributions to the world, was launched during the event. Under the theme ‘Together For A Better Future,’ heads of United Nations agencies, youth ministers, young leaders, and representatives from all sectors were invited to attend. More than 2,000 youth representatives from over 130 countries and 20 international organizations participated in the forum online and on-site. They shared their views on youth's contribution to global development and pooled youth strength for implementing both the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Global Development Initiative.??
