Youth engagement in UNESCO national commissions : towards a model of meaningful youth engagement, intergenerational dialogue, and partnerships / written and compiled for the Canadian Commission for UNESCO...: K34-9/2020E-PDF

"The 2011 Toolkit on Youth Engagement in National Commissions served as a spark for many organizations to develop localized youth strategies, to reflect on their ability to engage youth, and to consider how to work alongside youth in the framework of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). During the 2017 UNESCO Youth Forum, it became apparent that youth, National Commissions, and UNESCO would benefit from a revised toolkit on meaningful youth engagement, with insights, best practices, and examples from diverse stakeholders. The 2020 Toolkit builds on the successes of the 2011 Toolkit in advocating for youth involvement in decision-making, social campaigns, community building, and leadership in fighting climate change and promoting sustainable development. It promotes more meaningful youth engagement and intergenerational dialogue and partnerships. Dialogue and partnerships are necessary to ensure that young people's experiences, skills, and insights are valued and incorporated into the work of National Commissions"--Purpose of the toolkit, page 4.
