Outline
The global crisis we are facing is affecting all parts of society and changing lives. In all types of crises, from climate change to violent conflict or political instability, young people and youth-led organisations have always been the ones taking action and responding to the needs of others. The same is happening now during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many young people and youth organisations are involved to address the impacts of the pandemic.
The pandemic will have long-lasting social, cultural, economic, political and impacts on the whole of societies, including on young people. It is crucial for us to recognise the multiple and diverse impacts the COVID-19 pandemic already has and will have on young people and their rights, their inclusion and participation.
During the meeting, we want to focus on the concerns that young people and youth organisations have in the region. We also want to share the vision for the future of youth in the region.
What can you expect?
We will get together for 2 days (about 2 hours per day) in an informal and formal settings. This means we will have a space to talk, to share, to support and to act.
More details on the programme will come soon and all registered participants will be informed of the technicalities and the content of the meeting.
The meeting will be held online on the Zoom platform. It will be in English and without any participation fee.
It is important to remember that our events are safe spaces and that we are mindful and respectful towards each other.
With best regards,
