YOUNG ACTIVISTS SUMMIT

The Young Activists Summit shines a spotlight on young change-makers advancing human rights or sustainability, and helps them expand their impact.

The 2022 edition – to be held on 2 December at the United Nations in Geneva (Switzerland) – will showcase young individuals who work tirelessly for an inclusive and equal world. Whether they address racism, girls’ education, disability, street children, environmental protection or LGBTQIA+ people’s rights, the 2022 laureates will demonstrate that we should all stand in solidarity with discriminated individuals to make society thrive.

#YAS22 will bring together young people from all around the world and give them a platform to discuss, rally and act together – thus fostering peace, cultural tolerance and international cooperation.
