The Compendium of promising practises with, for and by young people will take shape of a highly visual UN-Habitat publication, featuring between 10<\/strong> to<\/strong> 20<\/strong> inspiring<\/strong> projects<\/strong> or<\/strong> initiatives<\/strong> of youth (with the target number of 17<\/strong> practises<\/strong> as per the number of SDGs), among which 5<\/strong> initiatives<\/strong> will represent an exemplary set of practises developed with and by youth focusing on various areas of community work where sustainable action is needed. All the promising practises will at the same time be featured at the Youth 2030 Community of Practice platform and adapted to an online-based exhibition, integrating media materials that cannot be included in the physical publication.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Globally, young women and men work side by side addressing the issues faced by their communities, bringing the world closer to the achievement of the 17 <\/span>Sustainable Development Goals<\/span><\/a> by the year 2030. Nevertheless, their action and transformative potential is yet to be duly recognised.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

In this call for most promising practices, youth are encouraged to <\/span>share the cases of successful youth-initiated and\/or youth-led activities <\/b>at the city, town or community level<\/b> they are involved in<\/b>. These submissions will inform <\/span>a social media campaign<\/b> around the topic of meaningful youth engagement in January \u2013 April 2022, and will be brought to the table at this year\u2019s ECOSOC Youth Forum, High Level Meeting on Sustainable Urbanisation, the Generation Connect Summit and World Urban Forum. The social media handles associated with the submitted initiatives and projects will be promoted by UN-Habitat and our partner organisations, giving young people the visibility they deserve.<\/span><\/p>

The submissions that stand out for their inspiring character will be featured in the upcoming UN-Habitat\u2019s <\/span>Compendium of Promising Practices<\/b> in the area of meaningful youth engagement. In this case, the person who made a submission will be contacted by UN-Habitat\u2019s Youth 2030 team for an interview.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

  1. The initiative must be led or initiated by youth OR youth are involved in shared decision-making and implementation with adults, thus falling within the seventh or eighth rung of <\/span>Hart’s ladder of young people’s participation<\/span><\/a>. <\/span>In this light, the submissions indicating a partnership between youth and local government are highly encouraged.<\/span><\/li>
  2. Organisations eligible to submit are community-based youth-led associations or agencies, youth projects and activities supported by NGOs, civil associations or formal institutions (schools, universities, museums, cultural centres, religious entities), or youth activities or programmes of local governments.<\/span><\/li>
  3. The initiative should be addressing a community\u2019s health and wellbeing in the economical or social sphere, or contributing to the creation of <\/span>public good<\/span><\/a> in the area of environment, governance or culture. In this regard, the initiative should be locally grounded, although it can have a national or global reach.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>
  4. The initiative must seek to be sustainable in a social, environmental and economic sense. Respectively, it should not harm the environment or be delivered at the expense of other stakeholders aside from beneficiaries. An additional plus is if the initiative has potential to be financially self-sustaining in the long run.<\/span><\/li>
  5. The initiative has to demonstrate some evidence of its effectiveness. Testimonials of those who benefited from the initiative should be shared, and\/or some statistics provided that compare the situation before and after the initiative.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

      As 2030 approaches, it is essential to mobilise all stakeholders and adopt a whole-of-society approach in attaining the SDGs. Therefore, the initiatives that involve various stakeholders such as public and private sector, civil society organisations, religious associations or media in the spirit of the <\/span>SDG 17 Partnerships for the Goals<\/b><\/a> are highly appreciated. If the initiative being submitted is characteristic of such sort of partnerships, please indicate it in the submission form.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

      In the midst of the deadly COVID-19 pandemic, the world bore witness to young people taking action in the forefront of the fight against the spread of the disease.

      A model advanced by sociologist Roger Hart in 1998, suggesting varied degrees (or \u2018rungs\u2019) of children and youth engagement when it comes to making decisions that affect them. The seventh and eighth rungs of participation refer to young people\u2019s leading and initiating action as well as sharing decision-making with adults, respectively, and are considered including youth voices in civic co-creation in the most meaningful way.

These groups often are often prejudiced against, and have specific needs of which local governments are obligated to provide a number of services to meet their needs. \u201cPlanning from the margins\u201d is a principle meaning that all residents benefit when the needs of marginalised populations are centred.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      An urban planning process that involves the entire community in the strategic and management processes of planning, with special attention to involving marginalised groups. Participatory planning aims to achieve community buy-in and prevent conflict between groups. Participatory planning should be learning-oriented and should promote mutual accountability between community and public officers to ensure the continued participation of the stakeholders. Stakeholders should be engaged at various levels and stages of the planning process including validation.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      Focusing on exclusively youth-led initiatives will have little value in terms of displaying the landscape of youth action and overlook many truly inspiring and innovative partnerships happening between and among young people and various groups of stakeholders. It is critical to acknowledge that having different socio-economic, cultural and contextual settings, youth both across the globe and urban-rural continuum experience this period of their life differently, which has a direct impact on the way they interact with the world. To be able to meaningfully engage with this diverse demographic, we would need to depart from capturing youth-led initiatives, but look for meaningful partnerships and practises of involvement that can inspire replication and creative thinking.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
