YEU Workshop
Description of the event
The YEU (Youth Engagement in UNESCO designated sites) project held an online three-day workshop titled “Empowering youth towards sustainable development.”
Strengthening young people’s skills, capacity building, and increasing awareness on cultural and social contexts/environments in which they live and work is a way to actively and effectively include and engage young people in decision-making processes. The focus of the workshop, therefore, was on the potential of UNESCO designations to enhance such processes involving future generations, with a cross-sectoral approach between education and culture.
Involvement and mission
The fellow Harriet Cliffen was a selected member of the discussion panel/working group that saw 25 participants discuss topics related to education, awareness, and action for empowering youth and promoting sustainable development.
