The idea behind this campaign is to gather selfies as a show of support and use
them to communicate to decision-makers that young people all over the world want to make sure that they are put in the picture of future development plans. This is part of a global youth campaign that UNFPA is launching before this year’s World Population Day on July 11 under the theme of “Investing in Young People”. The campaign is designed to gather millions of selfies from young people, decision-makers, high-profile celebrities and others, in support of UNFPA’s appeal to feature young people’s needs prominently as part of post 2015 development agenda. Young people are still too often excluded from decision making processes that directly affect their lives.
