Youth Assembly - UNECE RFSD Registrations

Dear youth and youth organisations, 

We are pleased to announce registrations for the Youth Assembly for the UNECE RFSD (Regional Forum for Sustainable Development) which will take place virtually on Saturday 25th March 2023.

You can register online now to participate!

What is UNECE RFSD? 

For the UNECE region, the Regional Forum on Sustainable Development (RFSD) is a broadly recognized platform that has brought together a growing number of actors and groups since its first stand-alone session in 2017. 

Bringing together countries from North America, Europe, the Caucasus, Central Asia as well as Israel, the Regional Forum has engaged Member States in the exchange on regional priority issues of prosperity, innovation, inclusion, gender equality and environmental sustainability, climate change and sustainable consumption and production, with a positive impact on SDG implementation at the national level. It is similar to a “Regional HLPF”.

The theme for this year’s Forum is: "Ensuring the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in the ECE Region in times of multiple crises". Focus will be on monitoring progress as well as identifying areas for transformative action in order to achieve the SDGs. Outcomes of the Forum will again contribute to the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development in July but, this year also the SDG Summit in September, which marks the mid-point of the implementation of the 2030 Agenda.

Youth Assembly 2023

In the lead-up to the RFSD, adolescents and youth will gather virtually and in-person (at the RFSD itself) to frame their priorities and demands - as well as showcasing how young people across the region are leading action on the SDGs.

The Youth Assembly is a self organised space - convened by youth, for youth - which provides a dynamic platform for policy discussions, training and capacity building for youth engaging at the RFSD. This year's forum is open to all adolescents and young people - whether you are participating at the RFSD person or following online! It will take place online on Saturday 25th March 2023.

Reflecting the themes of the RFSD, the Youth Assembly will focus on SDGs under review, specifically progress in the areas of clean water and sanitation (SDG 6), affordable and clean energy (SDG 7), industry, innovation and infrastructure (SDG 9), sustainable cities and communities (SDG 11), and partnerships for the goals (SDG17).

Register here by 22nd March 2023!
