The USAID's Youth Excel Launch | Leverage Youth-led Research And Learning In International Development

Youth Excel was finally launched on 4th May 2021! All of us implementing partners of the project are excited to finally have the project launched to the general public! We hope, moving forward, we will be able to attract more buy-ins, from both the donor community, private and public institutions!

The launch was facilitated by Sylvia Kananu, who is the Youth Excel Project Lead based in Kenya. The launch was held on the zoom platform. The agenda of the launch included a brief breakdown of the project, remarks from the IREX team, Keynote addresses, a youth panel discussion, a Q&A session and a celebratory moment for all the participants in the launch.

The 2021 Generation Equality Forum

The 2021 Generation Equality Forum

The 2021 Generation Equality Forum is a once in generation opportunity: to repair the damage done by the pandemic, to address long-term barriers to gender equality, and to secure women’s rights for decades to come. It will bring together governments, corporations and change-makers, united in pushing for urgent implementation and action. The event is organized by UN Women with the governments of Mexico and France, and with the involvement of youth and civil society organizations all over the world.
