The World Urban Youth Forum: Bringing Global Youth Leaders Together
The World Urban Youth Forum is a three-day youth conference taking place in Vancouver, the weekend before the World Urban Forum. The Youth Jam will be a chance for young people involved in exciting youth-led projects around the world to meet, share best practices, connect and collaborate with each other.
The World Urban Youth Forum will bring together 150 international youth delegates with 150 North-American youth to discuss youth-led projects, prepare for their participation in the World Urban Forum and write a youth declaration that will be officially presented there.
Youth Forum delegates will be from all walks of life, from university students to Hip-Hop performers and young social activists… we want to create a space for engaged, motivated young people to be inspired, build networks and work together to ensure that the politicians, planners and businesspeople at the World Urban Forum know they must include youth voices and youth-led projects in any effective solutions to problems like drug-addiction, hunger, illiteracy and environmental pollution.
The World Urban Youth Forum will culminate in the Hip-Hop Mainstage Concert, a four-hour interactive show featuring MCs, DJs and performers from Vancouver and around the globe.
Participants in the Youth Forum will also be registered as delegates at the World Urban Forum, and will be able to meet, present their projects to and speak directly with the “experts” attending. |
