On 25 May 2023, The Youth Cafe Collaborated with OHCHR DESIB in a virtual Youth Engagement Session: This 90 minutes webinar session brought together youth from different countries and backgrounds in a dialogue to identify barriers to implementing economic, social, and cultural rights and approaches to operationalize these rights as a framework for addressing local and global challenges; raise awareness of the young people across the world about economic, social and cultural rights; promote initiatives and diverse implications of the youth; and to strengthen the linkages between the youth-led organizations.
The Youth Cafe Joins The World Health Organization’s Civil Society Steering Committee | The Power Of Civil Society: Enhancing Engagement With The WHO
The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes the importance of collaborating with civil society to achieve health for all and meet the objectives outlined in its General Programme of Work. To enhance this engagement, the WHO has established the Civil Society Commission (CSO Commission), a network to strengthen dialogue, foster collaboration, and provide recommendations to support WHO's interactions with civil society at various levels. This article examines the mission, status, vision, objectives, principles, structure, and functions of the CSO Commission, highlighting its significance in advancing global health and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
