The Youth Forum will address three key thematics pertaining to Youth Unemployment, Literacy and Skills Development; Green Skills for Climate Action; and Embracing Active and Global Citizenship. The forum will conclude with a session on Ways Forward, identifying key recommendations and potential pathways to improve young people’s meaningful engagement in the promotion of lifelong learning and skills.
