Hakkında [öneri]

With the adoption of the 1995 World Programme of Action for Youth to the Year 2000 and Beyond, the 1998 Braga Youth Action Plan and the 1998 Lisbon Declaration on Youth Policies and Programmes, there has been no shortage of global action plans for youth set up by Goverments, youth themselves and the UN system. In addition, the summits of New York (1990, children), Beijing (1995, women), Rio (1992, environment), Cairo (1994, population), Copenhagen (1995, social development), and their +5 and +10 follow-up meetings, all carry relevance to youth.

What appears to be lacking is a proper strategy to make these plans work. Participation of young people in decision making appears to be the key to achieve the goals of the above meetings, and empowerment of young people's organizations should be an essential strategy for it.

The objective of the fourth session of the World Youth Forum will therefore be twofold:
a. To review progress achieved and obstacles encountered in the implementation of the Braga Youth Action Plan;
b. To identify new opportunities for empowering youth and for implementing the BYAP at the local, national and regional levels.

The expected outcome of the the Forum is: [1] to make an assessment of progress made by the United Nations system and the youth NGOs in implementing the Braga Youth Action Plan, and other relevant programmes of action, and [2] prepare concrete recommendations, strategies and tools to empower young people to participate in: decision-making, and in evaluation of policies and programmes on key youth issues, in order to ensure action at the local, national, regional and international level.
