It will bring together around 700 participants from all over the globe. The Global Forum on Youth Policies will be convened by the United Nations Secretary-General's Envoy on Youth together with UNDP, UNESCO, the Council of Europe and the host country. The programme of the First Global Forum on Youth Policies follows its original idea to organise discussions between youth policy leaders, experts and practitioners - a space for our professional community to exchange, reflect and discuss. Against that backdrop, most sessions are built around discussion formats. There will be some keynotes and discussion panels, and many thematic sessions which are organised around table conversations, its official website reads.
