The BDT proposes the organisation of a Global Youth Summit (GYS) to be held prior to WTDC-25 aiming at providing an open platform for young people to voice their concerns and contribute to the decision-making process on critical issues related to equal and equitable digital inclusion and empowerment of global youth in particular disadvantaged youth within the work of the Development Sector of the ITU.
As part of the implementation of the ITU Youth Strategy, the first Generation Connect Global Youth Summit was held on 2-4 June 2022, in Kigali, Rwanda.
At each Regional Preparatory Meeting (RPM) to WTDC-25, a Youth Segment will be held leading to the Global Youth Summit. The components/declarations provided by the Youth Segments to each RPM will constitute the background documents for the Global Youth Declaration at the GYS.
