The Connecting Tissue: Young people's meaningful participation in sustaining peace. My short intervention explaining how young women need to be included in sustaining peace and the statistics because for too long our talents have gone untapped and overlooked. We are ready to work together to make peace a reality in this world. H.E permanent representative of Germany to the UN then supported the idea and has already been making way for this to happen. Change and inclusivity is on it way. Because it is the only way! #peace #womenleaders #youthempowerment #womenempowerment #negotiation #inclusion #youth2030 #ecosocyouthforum #unitednations #commonwealth #leadership #truthtopower #worldleaders #thetimeisnow #hope #future @commonwealthstudents @commonwealth_sec
ECOSOC Youth Forum 2019 One of the most vibrant conferences I have been to with highly passionate young leaders from around the world coming together, making our differences our unique strength, building collaborative teams and partnerships to generate solutions for our common problems and ensure that our voices are heard however small or big our countries are We have been promised that the outcomes of our work, suggestions and policy formulation will be communicated to world leaders at the UNGA in September. They will hear our voices and integrate that into their implementation strategies because young people are the key to ensuring our vision is achieved by 2030! It was also an honour to have met Senior Minister of State Sim Ann and hearing from her directly the plans Singapore has in place to ensure young people are involved and tapped on to bring greater progress to our country. I am a proud Singaporean. Thank you Melissa Low and Christopher Joachim Pragasam for inviting me to the Permanent Mission of Singapore to the United Nations for a dinner reception with the young people in the diaspora. It was a wonderful evening. It is always my pride to represent Singapore and the @commonwealthstudents. #youth2030 #unitednations #unhq #ecosoc #youthforum #youthleadership
We the young people have a responsibility in ensuring a sustainable planet. Our actions are the key to the present and the future. We cannot blame the past as it is gone, we cannot burden the future for it will be too late. We must embrace our present and protect our future. We need to act now! If not then when? #sdgs2030 #youth2030 #unitednations #unitedyouth #futureisinourhands #futureisinclusive
Excited and anticipating the 2019 ECOSOC Youth Forum at the United Nations Headquarters, in New York next week where young leaders are invited to engage in dialogue to forward the 2030 Agenda on the Sustainable Development Goals together with member nations. It is a privilege and I'm really honoured. Also a nostalgic moment when I spoke at the UN HQ at the High level Education meeting in June 2017. It has been a thrilling, challenging and rewarding journey since. #unitednations #ecosoc #youthleaders #youthforum #newyork
"How do you manage these in your schedule?" HRH Prince of Wales asked me when I introduced the work I do to him. It was a cordial 15 second hand shake and exchange of a few words. But it made me reflect~ youth leaders, advocates and activists spend many hours- 20 or 30 hours on top of their regular work for something they strongly believe in. I believe it is passion that keeps us going. It is our northern guiding star amidst chaos, distractions and challenges and gives us our big 'Why' to do what we do. I hope all of us can one day find our true passion and let that drive our lives! Till then let's keep searching. #leadership #princeofwales #empoweredyouth #empoweredwomen #advocacy #activism @commonwealth_sec
