The ECOSOC Youth Forum will take place from 14 to 16 April 2026 at United Nations Headquarters in New York. Held under the theme of the 2026 High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF), the Forum will focus on transformative, equitable, innovative, and coordinated actions to advance the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals.
