Abstract :

The Declaration of the ITU Generation Connect Europe Youth Envoys presents a forward-thinking vision for a safe, inclusive, and sustainable digital future in Europe. It highlights the importance of youth participation in digital policymaking, particularly in the context of global and regional chal-lenges such as cybersecurity threats, misinformation, digital inclusion, and responsible AI devel-opment.
This declaration builds upon previous youth-led initiatives and aligns with key international frame-works, including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the ITU Connect 2030 Agenda, and the Global Digital Compact. The upcoming WSIS+20 Review and WTDC-25 present crucial op-portunities to integrate these priorities into policy discussions and implementation strategies.
Recognizing the significance of this document, it is essential to translate its vision into actionable steps that will guide the organization's future work and strengthen its engagement in digital trans-formation efforts.
