YMCA 175

In August 2019, YMCA175 brought together thousands of young leaders for a unique four-day event, the first of its kind in the organisation’s history, taking place at ExCeL London, UK. I supported the Secretary General and the World YMCA for the social media and the website.

I encourage our @UN Advocacy Group to strengthen the voices of young people through #YMCA, so that they can influence decisions at a UN and a governmental level. #GlobalGoals #YMCA175 pic.twitter.com/luvzXVRXMq

Many thanks Madam President @UN_PGA for stating that #YouthEngagement is one of the top priorities of your Presidency. Together we can achieve a lot by bringing young people to the decision-making tables of our organisations #UN4All #YMCA175 https://t.co/KxKIWm9Qe1
