From trailblazing movements to working with allies in established organizations to driving community initiatives, youth around the world are active participants in co-creating a sustainable future. Join the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Bureau for Inclusive Growth, Partnerships, and Innovation's Agency Youth Coordinator’s Office based in the Inclusive Development Hub and YouthPower2: Learning and Evaluation (YP2LE) for an International Youth Day event to honor our #YouthPartners on Tuesday, August 13, 2024. The event, Celebrating Progress in Partnership with Youth, will elevate USAID’s commitment to youth; celebrate partnerships with youth that led to progress in access, participation, and systems change; and feature some of YP2LE's young partners from around the world. Learn from USAID's leadership about the recently updated Youth In Development Policy, hear about the changes the policy and youth partners are inspiring, and understand how youth view their role and partnership in international development.
