Upcoming YLYP Events
Youth Morning Briefing
The Youth Morning Briefing will create a space where young people can hear how Member States are integrating youth issues into the CSW and the outcome document process. It will also allow for young people to share with Member States their substantive suggestions and unique perspectives on the Commission priority and review themes.
Connect and network with mentors and other youth activists! Join this informal meet and greet session to connect with selected YLYP Global Mentors for Youth Leaders. We hope this event can be the start of new meaningful mentorships and relationships between activists of all ages and experiences!

With the global mentorship program, our vision is to continue to facilitate the friendship, support and mentorship between generations of gender equality activists. We hope to encourage a mutually supportive learning relationship with youth and experienced advocates and foster an ongoing conversation where together we can create a community and inclusive culture that facilitates the emergence of a strong intergenerational movement of activists for gender equality.
For NGO CSW66, the YLYPs will be hosting two meet-and-greet events for the YLYP community to connect with our Global Mentors. The first will happen in the lead up to CSW66 as part of our Youth Preparation Series for NGO CSW66. The second will take place during the second week of CSW66. We hope these events can be the start of new meaningful mentorships and relationships between activists of all ages and experiences!
