I am part of a generation with a need to define our country and ourselves beyond an armed conflict — to debate, collaborate and sustain Somalia's new narrative and identity, told by Somali youth. When sharing stories of everyday people in Somalia, you're part of looking at the world from another perspective. Storytelling can be a powerful tool for change and important for us living in a conflict when turning the tide towards peace and economic growth.

In many parts of the world, discussions of sexuality and reproductive health are considered as a taboo. Many young people including young LGBTIQ+, women and girls are also denied access to information and support that would enable them to protect themselves. Let’s build a world where people have equal rights to sexual and reproductive health, including access to family planning, HIV and STI health care services.

The Generation Equality Forum, held in 2021, has kickstarted a 5-year journey to accelerate ambitious action and implementation on global gender equality. The Forum, convened by UN Women and co-chaired by the governments of France and Mexico in partnership with civil society and youth, took place in Mexico City from 29 - 31 March 2021 and in Paris from 30 June - 2 July 2021. The Forum generated $40 billion in financial commitments, as well as multiple policy and program commitments. The Forum’s ambitious action agenda will be driven by multi-stakeholder Action Coalitions, who together developed a Global Acceleration Plan to advance gender equality.

The Generation Equality Youth ​Task Force guided efforts to place young people at the centre of the Beijing+25 process. The Task Force worked to ensure that young people contributed to all stages of the global review process, the Generation Equality Forum and the Generation Equality campaign. You can learn more about the young leaders that made up the Task Force here.
