🌍✨ Today we mark — celebrating the determination, creativity, and leadership of young people everywhere.

This year’s theme, “Local Youth Actions for the SDGs and Beyond,” highlights how global progress begins at the community level. Across the world, youth are turning the Sustainable Development Goals into local realities — driving sustainable growth, building inclusive communities, forging peace, and demanding a fairer, greener future.

📊 Did you know?
Half the world’s population is 30 or younger — set to reach 57% by 2030.
67% of people believe in a better future, with teenagers the most optimistic.
By 2050, today’s under-25s will make up 90% of the prime-age workforce.

💬 “When young people lead, societies thrive.” – António Guterres
Let’s work together to support youth-led solutions and build a just, peaceful, and sustainable world — from the ground up.
