ومسؤوليتنا نحن هي تقليص المسافة بين ش��اب أفريقيا والمؤسسات المؤتمنة على خدم��هم.
من خلال الاستجابة للنزاعات، وبناء السلام، والحوكمة، والعمل المناخي، والدبلوماسية متعددة الأطراف، رأيتُ ما يصبح ممكنًا حين يُوثَق بالشباب لا كمجرد مستفيدين، بل كشركاء ومهندسين للحلول.
لقد كان عملي قائمًا على توظيف الثقافة والتواصل والمناصرة لربط السياسات بالناس، وضمان ألّا تغيب الكرامة الإنسانية يومًا عن أنظار المؤسسات.
وبكل تواضعٍ وقناعة، أتقدّم بترشّحي لمنصب مبعوثة الاتحاد الأفريقي للشباب.
إن أفريقيا لا تحتاج فقط إلى أصواتٍ أصغر سنًا حول طاولاتٍ قديمة، بل تحتاج إلى فضاءاتٍ جديدة تُبنى مع الشباب الذين ستُحد��ّد أفكارُهم وقيادتُهم وابتكاراتُهم ملامح أجندة 2063.
على السياسات أن تتعلّم لغة الإنسانية.
وعلى شباب أفريقيا أن يشاركوا في كتابة فصلها القادم.
— مريم بكر حسن (الحنسلام)»

Cada geração herda uma responsabilidade.
A nossa é reduzir a distância entre os jovens de África e as instituições encarregadas de os servir.

Na resposta a conflitos, na consolidação da paz, na governação, na ação climática e na diplomacia multilateral, vi o que se torna possível quando se confia nos jovens não apenas como beneficiários, mas como parceiros e arquitetos de soluções.

O meu trabalho tem consistido em usar a cultura, a comunicação e a advocacia para ligar as políticas às pessoas e garantir que as instituições nunca percam de vista a dignidade humana.

É com humildade e convicção que apresento a minha candidatura ao cargo de Enviada da Juventude da União Africana.

África não precisa simplesmente de vozes mais jovens em torno de mesas antigas. Precisa de novos espaços construídos com os jovens cujas ideias, liderança e inovação definirão a Agenda 2063.

As políticas devem aprender a linguagem da humanidade.
E a juventude africana deve ajudar a escrever o seu próximo capítulo.

75% of Africa is under 35. Agenda 2063 cannot be written in rooms where they are absent. I have spent my career building bridges between young people and institutions, from peacebuilding to climate action.

[Alhaníslam @Alhan_islam]

Every generation inherits a responsibility.

Ours is to close the distance between Africa’s young people and the institutions entrusted to serve them.

Across conflict response, peacebuilding, governance, climate action and multilateral diplomacy, I have seen what becomes possible when young people are trusted not merely as beneficiaries, but as partners and architects of solutions.

My work has been about using culture, communication and advocacy to connect policy with people and ensure that institutions never lose sight of human dignity.

It is with humility and conviction that I put myself forward for the role of African Union Youth Envoy.

Africa does not simply need younger voices around old tables. It needs new spaces built with the young people whose ideas, leadership and innovation will define Agenda 2063.

Policy must learn the language of humanity.

And Africa’s youth must help write its next chapter.

Your powerful poetry and passionate advocacy as the UN Global Advocate for Peace have the rare ability to touch hearts across cultures, languages, and borders.

Your words bring hope and emotional depth to the global call for peace in a deeply divided world.

This thread is a humble citizen’s sincere appeal from India - reminding all of us that we are one single Humanity sharing one precious Earth.

Science shows our time is limited, yet we waste it in endless conflicts instead of caring for one another with compassion and wisdom.

These thoughts emerge from my personal reflections on the purpose of life, human suffering, and our shared responsibility.

They are also explored in detail in my book How to be a Social Animal: Giving Away Society - Constitution of Humanity, where I propose a citizen’s heartfelt vision for peaceful societal evolution, ensuring basic dignity for every person, food security as a foundation, and creating systems that evolve gradually to serve Humanity as our true religion:

Not just words. Power.

@Alhan_islam lit up the stage and brought poetry to #COOPERA2026 — speaking about peace, justice, and the future we’re building.

Because sometimes, words are where change begins.

@Alhan_islam made this poem a few years ago and not a single thing what she mentioned has changed. We are still leaving in that same sad reality, it’s even worse, it worsens every single day!…NIGERIA WHAT WAY?!
