Happy International Youth Day on Youth Engagement for Global Action to each and every one of you!

We are excited to share with you the IYD podcast (in lieu of an official commemorative event) which is the result of a collaboration between UN DESA, the IANYD Youth Caucus and Create2030. We invite you to listen and broadly share this dynamic podcast which focuses on how the meaningful engagement of youth is undoubtedly enriching institutions and processes, especially for the purpose of responding to global challenges. The 6 young people interviewed in this podcast are truly inspiring and the experiences they share offer a clear path on how to enhance youth engagement at all levels. In addition to the substantive conversations, the podcast includes a musical piece on the theme.

You can find the podcast on our 2020 IYD webpage, which also includes the video message of the Secretary General, as well as other relevant resources and information. In addition, a Map of International Youth Day events organized independently was developed and is managed by UNMGCY.
