According to University of Glasgow report; "References to Youth in Peace Agreements, 1990-2022", The express incorporation of a youth perspective in peace agreements remains a marginal practice, despite showing an upward trend since 2010. Peace agreements that make references to youth represent approximately 12% of all concluded agreements during the time-frame of 1990-2022. This figure demonstrates the marginality of youth inclusion particularly when considering that approximately 52% of these peace agreements refer to youth in relation to only one sub-theme of YPAD. This indicates that the substantive consideration of youth, as expressly reflected in the text of peace agreements, is significantly limited in scope.
