Empowering the Next Generation: Embracing Meaningful Youth Participation The voices and ideas of young people are the driving force behind positive change in our world. Meaningful youth participation goes beyond token gestures; it's about truly valuing and integrating the perspectives of young individuals into decision-making processes. When we create spaces for young people to engage, contribute, and lead, we're sowing the seeds for a more inclusive and innovative future. 🤝 Embracing Collaboration: Meaningful participation involves collaboration between generations. By bridging the gap between youth and adults, we can leverage diverse insights to solve complex problems and shape policies that benefit everyone. 📣 Amplifying Voices: Young people bring fresh ideas and unique experiences to the table. Creating platforms for them to express their thoughts not only empowers them but also enriches our collective pool of knowledge and creativity. 🌎Tackling Global Challenges: From climate change to social justice, today's challenges require long-term solutions. Youth participation ensures that the decisions made today reflect the interests of those who will inherit the world tomorrow. 🌱 Nurturing Leadership: Meaningful youth participation nurtures leadership skills. When young individuals are entrusted with responsibilities, they learn to lead with empathy, adaptability, and a forward-thinking mindset. 💡Sparking Innovation: Fresh perspectives often lead to innovative breakthroughs. By involving young minds in various fields, we ignite new ideas, technologies, and approaches that drive progress. Let's commit to not just hearing the voices of our youth, but actively involving them in shaping our present and future. By embracing meaningful youth participation, we're not just empowering young people – we're creating a better world for all. #YouthParticipation #EmpowerTheFuture #CollaborationForChange

Digitalization is transforming our world, creating unprecedented opportunities to drive sustainable development. With half the planet under 30, and this number rising to 57% by 2030, today’s youth are at the forefront of this transformation. On this International Youth Day, we celebrate the innovative contributions of young people who are turning clicks into progress, and we call for even greater opportunities to involve youth in shaping our digital future. #YouthDay #DigitalRevolution #SustainableDevelopment #internationalyouthday #IYD2024

Join us for the World Bank Group (WBG) Youth Summit as we explore the power of technology to drive prosperity and foster sustainable development. At the flagship event for youth at the WBG, young changemakers from around the world will come together to discuss innovative ideas and solutions for development challenges. The Summit is more than an event; it’s a catalyst for change, uniting youth to harness technology against the backdrop of digital access, AI, and sustainable tech. It’s a call to action for the digitally divided, a platform for marginalized voices, and a beacon for those ready to lead the digital transformation. Join us to power progress and co-create a more inclusive, sustainable world.

As we come to the end of another year, a year in which we have seen turbulence and unrest across the globe, can we say that these are some of the toughest times we have ever faced, with countries at war, the global economy stifled, arguments and health concerns continue, following the most widespread pandemic, and a global migration challenge that seems unequalled? Well, we guess the answer is yes…and no. These are certainly the challenges of the day, but many generations at different times in history, would have the same thoughts, as they found themselves in the face of what seemed to be impossible challenges. In all cases, a certain resilience was required and was shown, and the same resilience is required, in order to map a way through the plethora of issues so that we might find a peaceful and sustainable existence. And this is where and why the age agenda matters…where it is always part of the solution, never the source of the problem. In all cases through history, it has required a coming together of minds and experience…with younger and older generations taking on extraordinary responsibilities, and putting themselves ‘on the line’ to overcome. This is something we have tried to focus on within our content. We have broadened our topics of discussion to the multigenerational issue and trying to increase collaboration - a step to helping face these challenges through working together. Through learning from each other and beginning to reduce miscommunication between generations, cohesion through all age groups should be something to focus on when considering the tricky path ahead. So today, let’s look to the power and value of a multi-generational society, to utilise the mass of know-how, ambition and fortitude, to come up with the answers to the challenges. Let’s move into 2024 with hope and aspiration, fuelled by a wealth of talent and opportunity, where everyone can contribute something positive….whatever their age! #ADF #championagediversity #inclusionmatters #age #agediversity #diversity

From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development As we celebrate World Youth Day, it's essential to recognize the immense power we hold in the digital age. Each click, each interaction, and each shared idea has the potential to drive sustainable development and create lasting change. Youth are not just the future; we are the present, and our digital engagement is shaping the world we live in. Let’s harness this potential to innovate, to connect, and to lead with purpose. Together, we can turn our clicks into meaningful progress and pave the way for a more sustainable and equitable future. #WorldYouthDay #DigitalInnovation #SustainableDevelopment #YouthEmpowerment

🌍On International youth day, As a sociology student I understand the profound connection between youth and technology. I have been studying the ways in which youth culture,opportunities and difficulties are shaped by technology. Also how society is getting influenced by technology and the changes of sociology. Let’s celebrate this day to recognise the contribution and digital innovation and to the issues of fair and inclusive access to technology. #InternationalYouthDay #YouthAndTechnology #Sociology #DigitalInnovation #UNDP

Today's Bangladesh should introduce a National Student Assembly to empower the youth by institutionalizing their representation through a democratic process. This assembly would provide students with a platform to engage in national discourse, influence policy decisions, and contribute to shaping the nation's future. Comprising 128 student representatives elected annually, the assembly would ensure broad participation through virtual voting and focus on the concerns of the younger generation. By amplifying student voices and fostering civic responsibility, this initiative would strengthen democratic practices and honor the legacy of the August student movement, guiding Bangladesh toward a more inclusive and participatory democracy.
