United Nations Youth Office’s Post

In an era marked by challenges that threaten #OurCommonFuture — from escalating conflicts to environmental crises — it's more urgent than ever that we join together to raise our voices to push for urgent and inclusive change 🚨 We need world leaders and institutions to take immediate action to make global policymaking and decision-making spaces more representative of the communities they serve. Putting more diverse perspectives around the decision-making table is the only way to ensure we don’t continue to repeat past mistakes. Young people recognize this perhaps more than anyone else, as the generation that will live with the consequences of the decisions taken today. By championing intergenerational solidarity and finding innovative solutions even in the most challenging of circumstances, young people remind us that a better world is still possible 💪 That is why we are mobilizing young people and allies around the world in support of an open letter, letting world leaders know: It’s time to let #YouthLead ✊ Join the movement by signing the open letter & letting leaders know it’s time to #ActNow ✍️ bit.ly/LetYouthLead
