UN Young Leaders for the SDGs

​The UN Young Leaders for the SDGs is a biennial initiative by the Office of the UN Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth, recognizing 17 exceptional young individuals aged 15 to 35 who are leading impactful efforts toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These leaders are selected based on criteria such as leadership, innovation, scalability, impact, and presentation skills, and are expected to advocate for the SDGs, engage peers in related initiatives, and collaborate with the UN and its partners. ​
