The world is changing, challenges are growing and every single action matters. With more than half of the planet under 30 and a world’s population that is younger than ever before, it is clear that we cannot achieve the Sustainable Development Goals without the engagement of young people. To fully unleash this power, institutions at all levels are required to provide an enabling environment that provides young people with their human rights allowing them to thrive up to their potential. The power of young people is probably the most I invite all leaders in institutions from local to global untapped resource in the global endeavors towards levels and from within and beyond the UN system to achievement of health for all. A first reason could be carefully read this valuable report and allow a the nature of the power of young people itself with moment for institutional rethinking on how their its enormous potential and versatile roles to play respective organizations are placed to meaningfully alongside the insufficient understanding of how engage with young people. Lastly, to young people possibly this power can be put in harmonized action everywhere, I reaffirm our solid commitment to you; towards achieving the global goals. Secondly, there is your health and your rights. Together, let us global institutional under-investment with both collaborate meaningfully and make our world a intellectual and financial resources on developing better place; now and for the generations to come. robust engagement strategies that recognize young people as partners. As the global health leader, and in recognition of the Diah S. Saminarsih power of young people, the World Health Senior Adviser on Gender and Youth Organization (WHO) is leading the way on how to Office of the Director General meaningfully engage young people as partners WHO towards achieving health for all. The report in hand presents a valuable assessment and brings examples on initiatives that engage young people from across and beyond the UN system, providing a valuable piece of evidence to WHO as well as all partners willing to improve and create meaningful engagement strategies. It comes at an opportune time whereby WHO embarks on developing an action plan on Meaningful Youth Engagement and the launch of the UN Youth Strategy. This report particularly provides valuable evidence on engagement with young people aged 10-24 and opportunities on opening safe and meaningful spaces for their voices to drive transformative change.

  • Minutes General Assembly 2011 17Th-18Th October 2011, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
    Minutes General Assembly 2011 17th-18th October 2011, Amsterdam, the Netherlands Monday - 17th October 2011 Plenary Session 1 Opening Remarks Esther Paterson, Chair of the IGLYO Board, opened the conference. She began by thanking the sponsors of the event: European Commission Progress Programme, the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science in the Netherlands and the City of Amsterdam. She welcomed the guests and delegates, in particular the 18 new member organisations and the new members from 4 countries not previously represented – Hungary, Georgia, Cyprus and Montenegro. She explained that statutory meetings were very important for a youth-led organisation as an opportunity to get the views and feedback of members. Eunis, Board member from COC Nederland, addressed the GA and outlined COC Nederland's work on youth and education. COC is a 65 year-old organisation with 22 regional offices and national programmes on issues including health and Human Rights. Some of their recent work includes lobbying for legislation to protect gay and lesbian teachers in private and religious schools. She also outlined COC's programmes in schools which include Jong en Oot (Young and Out), GSA (Gay-Straight Alliance) and Pink Elephant. Ben Baks, political advisor to government of the Netherlands, addressed the GA and introduced the current policy document in the Netherlands, which includes a commitment to double the number of GSAs, and the number of rainbow cities. He said that the Ministry was glad to support IGLYO and other member organisations (through Dutch embassies). He explained that the international challenges include the fact that there are no binding documents for LGBTQ rights in the UN.

  • Mesaʼs 51St Annual Meeting
    PRELIMINARY PROGRAM VER. 10-12-17 Jake McGuire Destination DC MESAʼs 51st Annual Meeting Washington DC November 18-21 We return to DC for MESA’s 51st annual meeting at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park Hotel where we have met every three years since 1999. The hotel is located in a lovely residential area near the National Zoo, but a nearby stop on the metro red line makes all parts of DC easily accessible. The program of 230+ sessions (see pages 12-51) spread over four days will offer a smorgasbord to whet the appetite of any Middle East studies aficionado. MESA’s affiliate groups meet mostly on Saturday, November 18 (see pages 10-11) and the first program session begins that day at 5:30pm. Panels run all day Sunday and Monday and end at 3pm on Tuesday. The book bazaar will be open Sunday and Monday from 9am to 6pm and on Tuesday from 8am to 12pm (see pages 8-9). MESAʼs ever-popular FilmFest (see the teaser on pages 6-7) begins screenings on Saturday morning and runs through Tuesday until around 2pm. The MESA Presidential Address & Awards will be held Sunday evening from 6pm to 7:30pm, and the MESA Members Meeting on Monday evening from 6pm to 8:00pm. As you will see, it’s business as usual, except of course for a new administration that is determined to ban nationals of six Muslim majority countries from traveling to the US, and MESA having joined a lawsuit against the ban that is making its way to the US Supreme Court in October.

It has its origins in the physical town square, where a community can gather in a central and open public space. As towns grew and technology progressed, the public square has become an anchor of democracy, with civic features like public broadcasting creating a space between the commercial, the personal and the government that helps anchor communities in shared understanding. 1 | SUMMARY In recent times, online platforms like Facebook In re-imagining a new public square, this paper have usurped core aspects of what we expect from proposes an incremental evolution of the Australian a public square.
