Tenth meeting of the Statistical Conference of the Americas of ECLAC

Caribbean Youth Dialogues 2024 in preparation of the ECOSOC Youth Forum

The Caribbean is home to more than 11 million youth between the ages of 15 and 29. These young people have a central role to play in achieving sustainable development in the region. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is an opportunity to galvanize action aimed at promoting greater inclusion of youth in all spheres. This roadmap recognizes in several of its goals the centrality of the full incorporation of youth as a necessary condition to move towards more egalitarian societies on a path of sustainable development. However, youth in the subregion face many challenges that need to be addressed in order to facilitate environments that enable them to reach their maximum potential to contribute to the achievement of SDGs by 2030, by leaving no one behind and a legacy for future youth generations.
