The Youth Café was invited for a 3-day Collaborative Futures Workshop, which is a hybrid hackathon and fellowship designed to help you, and fellow social justice organizations and leaders envision ways that emerging creative technology can expand your impact, understand how new technologies will shape your work and how we can change these technologies, and learn how to act on this knowledge in partnership with East Africa's boldest creatives and technologists using a Do It Yourself (DIY) ethos and active collaboration.
Speech By UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka | International Youth Day, 2020 | Youth Engagement For Global Action
Today, as we celebrate International Youth Day, UN Women recognizes the immense value of young people like Doreen who are at the forefront of global action for change, both in responding to the pandemic and in working to address the systemic inequalities it has unearthed. Young people bring fresh legs to the race, fresh eyes to see things from new perspectives, new energy for the long road ahead and sure-footed adaptability to change, despite themselves facing complex challenges and vulnerabilities brought on by the pandemic.
