Youth Vision for Water on the road to UN Water Conference 2023

The World Youth Parliament for Water (WYPW) started brainstorming about what we wanted to achieve before, during and after the UN Water Conference 2023 during our 5th General Assembly in Dakar, Senegal in March 2022. There were 60 WYPW members from around the world in attendance.

During the Pre-GA program, the 60 participants took part in a 2 day advocacy workshop and answered an advocacy survey to prepare them to the collaborative work that took place during the GA. While in Dakar, to begin the collaborative process, small groups brainstormed ideas and then discussed and combined all the ideas as a larger group. A subcommittee was formed to draft and edit the Youth Vision soliciting comments from the WYPW members at the GA and then from the entire WYPW membership.

This Youth Vision contain 3 global objectives and 22 concrete actions to reach them. It will help guide WYPW leading up to the UN Water Conference 2023 and we call on all stakeholder to join us by integrating our vision into their strategy.
