Youth-led development (YLD) gives young people a role
in the struggle to make poverty history. The 2008 World
Youth Congress (WYC) will assess progress with YLD
since delegates coined the phrase at the first WYC in
1999. In reviewing YLD projects worldwide, delegates will
try to answer the question: “What is the most effective
role that youth can play in development?”
The 4th World Youth Congress will welcome 600 young activists from around 120 countries who are committed to rise to the generational
challenge of sustainable development. A majority will exhibit their Youth-Led Development (YLD) projects. Others will report on them – writing a book celebrating YLD achievements. All will take part in
discussions with development professionals and in a global
festival to celebrate International Youth Day, August 12th. |
