Today, after months of consultations and negotiations the resolution for the creation of the UN Youth Office has been adopted!
This kicks off the implementation of the series of proposals in the Secretary General’s #OurCommonAgenda Report.
Congratulations to one and all.
I would also like to commend the cofacilitators - Amb Carolyn Rodrigues Birkett, PR of #Guyana & Amb Osama Mahmoud Abdelkhalek, @EgyptPRNewYork for their hard word and all the Member States for their constructive engagement in making the UN Youth Office a reality!
It is of the utmost importance that young people are given ownership and belonging in decision-making processes.

In times of turmoil, Madiba’s life teaches us to choose dignity over humiliation, to speak up during injustice, and to forgive rather than hate.
