Bridging Borders for Peace: Regional Cooperation on Youth, Peace and Security

10 years ago, the UN Security Council adopted the resolution 2250 Youth, Peace and Security (YPS), marking a much-needed recognition of youth agency in peacebuilding processes. Ever since, the resolution has inspired youth around the world to take action for peace and implement its message.

Changemaker invites you to join a timely discussion on the role of regions and regional cooperation in YPS activism and implementation. How have the regional coalitions formed, what is their role in today’s peacebuilding? Which kinds of challenges do different regions face when implementing UNSCR2250, and how do they overcome them? What is the future of regional cooperation on YPS?

We will hear experiences from panelists from the Nordic, MENA and African coalitions on YPS and welcome you to take part in the discussion.
