Children and Youth Major Group to UNEP
The Children and Youth Major Group (CYMG) represents the voices and interests of young people within the framework of UNEP. As advocates for future generations, CYMG emphasizes that the issues we tackle today will profoundly affect both present and future generations. Their contributions are essential for shaping the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP's) policies and programmes. Consequently, UNEP recognizes the importance of promoting intergenerational dialogue and solidarity by considering and integrating the views of young people in its initiatives. More information
