On the observance of the International Day of Peace, in the Trusteeship Council Chamber of the UN Headquarters, we gathered foreign ministers, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, investors, the leaders of nonprofit organizations focused on youth, and musicians to inspire all ages to think more creatively about their role as global citizens.
The Global Youth Summit addressed key trends in peace building, global citizenship education and the Sustainable Development Goals where innovation, government, business leaders, and young people leveraged their strengths for social impact.
Our event partner, PeaceDay365, showed how art, fashion, technology, and business can serve as vehicles to address the Sustainable Development Goals, while collaborating with global stakeholders across multiple industries.
In the Chamber of the Trusteeship Council, where high-level dignitaries, human rights activists, peace builders, and many others convene to advance the values of the United Nations, we created visibility for organizations that build peace and empower and transform communities, especially through the inclusion of youth.
