Globally more than 1 in 4 people are in the 15-26 age bracket – it is the largest youth population the world has ever known. They all have
one thing in common – their unlimited potential for learning, growing and making a difference in their individual communities and broader society. The UN Secretary-General has stressed “We want the world our children inherit to be defined by the values enshrined in the United Nations Charter: peace, justice, respect, human rights, tolerance and solidarity.”
But the world they are growing up in is an unpredictable one. There are enormous opportunities that if properly seized would bring about enormous transformation in their lives. Yet, there are also challenges and risks, which if not properly addressed will diminish their potential.
The United Nations recognises the enormous capacity of young people, and our role in supporting them to fulfill their promise as agents of change for a better world. For the UN in Nepal, we are committed to engaging with youth as a key stakeholder in Nepal’s development. The study “Youth Involvement in the Peaceful and Sustainable Development of Nepal”
