What is the #YouthAssembly?

Guided by the overarching principle of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, “Leaving no one behind,” the Youth Assembly is a conference that explores cross-cutting issues and solutions for sustainable development in the social, economic, and environmental dimensions, bringing together young global citizens from all over the globe.
