This is a modal window.
Youth engagement is critical to building inclusive, resilient, and secure societies. The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) has made youth participation a cornerstone of its work, recognizing that young people are not only the beneficiaries of but also active contributors to peace and security.
