INTERNATIONAL YOUTH DAY WITH THE TONY ELUMELU FOUNDATION

The theme of International Youth Day 2020, “Youth Engagement for Global Action” seeks to highlight the ways in which the engagement of young people at the local, national and global levels is enriching national and multilateral institutions and processes, as well as draw lessons on how their representation and engagement in formal institutional politics can be significantly enhanced.

This year’s IYD seeks to put the spotlight on youth engagement through the following three interconnected streams:

1. 1. Engagement at the local/community level;
2. 2. Engagement at the national level (formulation of laws, policies, and their implementation); and,
3. 3. Engagement at the global level.
