🚨 BREAKING: The #SDGProgress Report 2023 reveals that the #AsiaPacific has only made 14.4% progress towards achieving the #SDGs, pushing our #2030Agenda ambitions further away by decades.
We can't afford to wait any longer - #ActNow!

These words from an ordinary man from #SriLanka must reach every leadership in the rest Asia and Africa.
We vote u in power, but instead of delivering services u get bodyguards to protect u from us.

📢La militante @chamathya93 le répète :
"Les adolescentes doivent être engagées & prendre part aux processus de décision. Une entité consultative doit être constituée"
Il faut garantir la participation & le leadership des adolescentes!

With unapologetic young feminist leaders as @chamathya93 from @wagggsworld we have faith that the #GenerationEquality accountability mechanism will involve girls #ActForEqual #genderequality
Chamathya Fernando retweeted
“We need to go beyond youth participation towards enabling and supporting youth leadership.”
@chamathya93 called for:
1⃣ Sustained and flexible funding
2⃣ Accountability from commitment-makers to implement their pledges
#YouthLead #GenerationEquality
Chamathya Fernando retweeted
Imagine a world in 25 years where we have implemented what we have discussed today - spot on vision from @chamathya93 @Beijing25Youth
#GenerationEquality
Replying to @AdolescentPlan
‘Imagine 2 different worlds in 25 years:
• One where we are having this same conversation.
• And one where we are implementing the actions we are discussing today.
I look forward to the second one.’

Adolescent #GirlLeaders telling it how it is🔥
📢We must have the tools, mechanisms & resources available to participate meaningfully
📢We don’t want our voices to be diluted as ‘youth’, we must be recognised as our own group
📢We need meaningful action

"After sessions with you girls, people come back and ask us: where did you find these girls? I tell them: these girls are everywhere, we just did not see them" -@phumzileunwomen #GEF
📣I totally agree, girls everywhere are willing to share their ideas. We only have to listen. 👂🏻

Let adolescent girls make choices & decisions which affect us.
