Pioneers Featuring at UN APFSD

 “Building back better from COVID-19 while advancing the full implementation of the 2030 Agenda in Asia and the Pacific” is the 2022 theme of UN ESCAP Asia-Pacific Forum on Sustainable Development (APFSD). Led by UN ESCAP with the support of 10 UN agencies, APFSD is an annual and inclusive intergovernmental forum and a regional platform for supporting countries.

One of the highlights of APFSD is the Youth Agenda - a dynamic and interactive platform for youth solutions to be expressed and heard, and a place to support young changemakers and future leaders take action.

At the UN APFSD Young Pioneers Forum, a panel titled “Innovation Towards a Sustainable Future: How Youth are Accelerating Social Impact” was organized. Five secondary schools students across Asia Pacific presented on their ideas and solutions on how youth-led initiatives can realize real environmental, economic and social impact in the region.
