Greatly appreciated the meeting with Scouts from around the world and to hear about their initiatives to mobilize youth to address the #LearningCrisis

At @WorldScouting we welcome the @UN General Assembly decision to establish the #UNYouthOffice. The new office will build on the impactful work by @UNYouthEnvoy and further elevate the UN System efforts in supporting youth development worldwide.

[UN Youth Office @UNYouthAffairs]

Today marks a historic moment as the UN General Assembly unanimously adopts Resolution A/76/L85 to establish a new UN Youth Office, integrating the existing work of my office 👏

This is a groundbreaking milestone to advance the @UN’s work with & for youth everywhere 🇺🇳

Junbert and his Scout group bring non-formal education to children's rehabilitation centres in the Philippines, to help child offenders build skills and confidence that will help them thrive once released. Check out his story: https://t.co/2b0RyDenyG

Proud of @PabonJunbert for addressing the UNGA today at @UN_PGA's Debate on Enhancing Youth Mainstreaming in Crime Prevention Policies and calling on Member States to protect the rights of children + young ppl who fall victim to poverty 💜

[Sam Williams @samjoshwilliams]

Feeling inspired from meetings in Geneva with amazing colleagues from #Big6 Youth orgs, @WHO & @unfoundation

Reflecting on our 🤩 impact through the @gymobilization & planning for the future

We are committed to powering youth-led solutions to the big issues facing our 🌍

[Annie Weaver @aweav]

We’ve been working together on Zoom for 1.5 years to coordinate youth-led Covid recovery efforts across our collective networks of 250+ million people! But only now got to meet the faces behind the Zoom windows 👩🏻‍💻

[Annie Weaver @aweav]

Wrapping up our time in Geneva with the Big 6 Youth Orgs + @who and @unfoundation to celebrate the impact of our joint Global Youth Mobilization and plan out our next phase of work

No empty promises or bureaucratic processes. Here is an example of a unique international partnership making a real impact in communities worldwide. Check it out!

@benebular @TorytheLinguist Lots of Arabic adjectives can be used as verbs like this, including colors! But you see it a lot in literature with feelings - “she became angry” would just be 1 past tense verb for example

[Annie Weaver @aweav]

@benebular Some of these were really disappointing ngl

[Annie Weaver @aweav]

So proud that Scouts are being loud at #CoP26, raising their voices for urgent climate action and more meaningful youth engagement 💜

[Global Goals @GlobalGoalsUN]

“We need to be included in all processes, including the decision-making process and also the implementation process.”

-- At #COP26, @worldscouting member @GbarcenaC discusses the importance of inclusive #ClimateAction.
