On November 25, CrowdOutAIDS published an article called 'We Cannot Talk about Youth Leadership without Youth Leaders'.
They describe the outcomes of an online survey about strategy of UN when working with young people.
YPARD also thinks this is an important issue. Whether in the context of an AIDS programme or our work in ARD, it is crucial to think what role we as young professionals can play as leaders!
The article starts with the key principles:
"When we asked what key principles that should be respected when UN works with young people, participants shared that it’s important for UN to share power with young people, so they can have equal partnership with UN agencies. To achieve this, it would be critical for UN to provide continuous support to young people to do their work. But at the same time, UN shouldn’t interfere too much details into young people’s work. Should give enough space for young people to engage with their capacities."
