Change the Code Campaign

Youth and marginalized voices leading the #HumanitarianReset.
Not reforming the system — we’re rewriting the code. 🌍💥
#WeChangeTheCode

[Change the Code Campaign @wechangethecode]

From Nigeria to Ukraine, the message is clear:

Young people want participation with power, accountability, and action.

This week, #ChangeTheCode presented findings from our Global Survey & Regional Consultations during a strategic engagement between youth leaders, ActionAid Nigeria, and ActionAid Denmark.

The reset must happen with young people. Not around them.

[Change the Code Campaign @wechangethecode]

From Nigeria to Palestine to Ukraine young people in crisis regions are asking:

"When will the humanitarian system stop speaking about us and start building WITH us?"

Through our Localization Action Hub, youth are not just raising the gaps they're shaping the solutions.

“The future of humanitarian action cannot be designed for young people without being designed with them.” — Bashonga

At the Global Youth Humanitarian Summit 2026, one message came through clearly: young people are not just stakeholders in the future of humanitarian action...

[Change the Code Campaign @wechangethecode]

Delighted to have you attend this summit and your contribution to the conversation is a clear sign of what we have been calling for, accountability must be pragmatic and not symbolic.

Thank you for the energy you brought to the summit.
