Empowering Young people in Global Governance Process: The German Government

Young people, who constitute the majority of the world’s population, are an important force and partner in the field of global Interdependence. It follows, therefore, that youth organisations are social actors who should be recognised as having a role to play in development and who are capable of carrying out projects and programmes in the field of development co-operation. Direct co-operation and exchange of ideas between young people in the North and South is a key instrument of intercultural understanding and global interdependence.

Youth in Global Governance

There are millions of young people in the world who have one thing in common, they are in the process of preparing for adult life, seeking to ensure economic independence and become productive members of their societies. For that to succeed, young people require the support and help of their families; the conditions to live in peace; access to educational and health facilities; and productive, enjoyable leisure time. These are basic necessities for young people the world over, irrespective of their race, sex, colour or religion.
