ECOSOC 2024 Youth Forum

From: 16.04.2024 to: 18.04.2024

The Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) Youth Forum provides a global platform for dialogue among Member States and young leaders from around the world on solutions to challenges affecting youth wellbeing. It also serves as a unique space for young people to share their vision and actions as well as provide an opportunity to advance youth solutions to accelerate the implementation of the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs.

The Youth Forum will gather young people to share their recommendations and innovative ideas in preparation of the Summit of the Future, to be held under the auspices of the General Assembly, in September 2024.

Youth leaders from around the world will have the opportunity to engage with government representatives, youth delegates, policymakers and other relevant stakeholders in civil society and the private sector.

The 2024 Forum's discussions will be guided by the 2024 ECOSOC and HLPF theme "Reinforcing the 2030 Agenda and eradicating poverty in times of multiple crises: the effective delivery of sustainable, resilient and innovative solutions".

The Mountain Partnership Mountain Youth Hub will host the side event "Elevating mountain youth voices for sustainable mountain development" on 17 April - side event details here.
