Amplifying the Voices of Youth for Sustainable Urban Future: Leading the Way to Recovery

UNAOC, in partnership with UN-Habitat, UNEP, UNODC, UNHCR, IOM, ICMYO and MGCY, are co-organizing a thematic session that will focus on the role of youth in recovery processes for their cities and communities, youth inclusion in local governance, and their participation in the sustainable urbanization amidst the global multidimensional crises. It will put to the fore diverse perspectives and the voices of young women and men coming from vulnerable settings, including those living in informal settlements, refugees, and migrants.
