When local governments provide spaces for innovation, mentorship, and civic engagement, they not only accelerate SDG implementation but also nurture future community leaders and changemakers.
The theme of International Youth Day (IYD) 2025, "Local Youth Actions for the SDGs and Beyond", highlights the unique role of youth in translating global ambitions into community-driven realities. With over 65 per cent of SDG targets linked to local governance, youth engagement is not a luxury—it is a necessity.
