Youth Leadership for Gender Equality: World Youth Skills Day and International Youth Day 2026

The Youth Leadership for Gender Equality Blog brings together young leaders from UN Women's 30 for 2030 Network and EmPower Academy, two regional programmes that support and connect young people working towards gender equality across Asia and the Pacific, to share their experiences and ideas for a fairer world. Published to mark World Youth Skills Day (15 July) and International Youth Day (12 August), this series spotlights how young people across the region are driving change through advocacy, entrepreneurship, digital innovation, climate action, and community leadership.
