The Youth Café, as a centrist non-governmental organization, therefore, calls upon all young people in the country to be not only critical examiners of government proposals but also active players in all democratic processes. The Youth Café believes that young people must get engaged in formal political processes and give their voice in drawing both today’s and tomorrow’s politics.
UN75: Engaging Youth To Shape Our Future
UN75 is an opportunity to re-engage the global community, from the world leaders giving addresses at the General Assembly, to the billions of citizens watching those speeches from home. We cannot expect anyone else to solve our problems. Everyone has a role to play, a way to contribute, and a valued voice to add to the conversation. That’s the beauty of the UN75 initiative. I believe strongly in that message, having spent the better part of the last decade empowering Israeli and Palestinian youth to tackle regional and global challenges via Model United Nations (MUN).
