The United Nations Office of the Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth is facilitating a youth-led meaningful youth engagement roadmap to the SDG Summit 2023. As part of this process, a series of virtual youth consultations will be hosted between June and August 2023.
The second virtual youth consultation will take place on Friday, 11 August 2023 from 9h00 to 11h00 AM EDT (New York time).
The consultation is being organized alongside the Major Group for Children and Youth and the International Coordination Meeting of Youth Organization.

to the SDG Summit 2023.
● Update youth about progress on key Our Common Agenda recommendations, including the
establishment of the UN Youth Office.

youth engagement and the 2030 Agenda.The discussion will focus on the following guiding questions:

- What are key opportunities to enhance youth leadership in SDG implementation, monitoring, and review, in your specific context?
- How can youth be better engaged as full-fledged partners in SDG implementation?
- How can meaningful youth engagement, in particular of marginalized and vulnerable people, be further strengthened and mainstreamed in SDG implementation, monitoring, and review at global, regional, national, and local levels, including grassroots?
