The regional campaign focused on youth engagement in Post-2015 agenda ‘‘Youth voice- future we want In Eastern Europe and Central Asia” has been launched early October. The goal of the campaign is to ensure that issues concerning young people are recognized in the future development agenda, which can be done only with meaningful youth participation. Young advocates from the region of Eastern Europe and Central Asia are encouraged to mobilize and advocate for the realization of youth priorities related to the Post-2015 development framework. The campaign also aims to provide comprehensive information on youth in the EECA region and enable the improvement of skills needed for effective advocacy actions. All organizations interested in joining the campaign may express their interest by filling in the form available here.

The campaign is coordinated by Regional Youth Leadership Group with support of UNFPA’s Regional Office for Eastern Europe and Central Asia. The RYLG is composed of representatives of the following youth networks/institutions: ASTRA Youth, PETRI Center Sofia, Y-SAFE, Y-PEER, YouAct, Youth Coalition. ASTRA Youth is one of the coordinators of this project.
