Call for Nomination UN-Habitat Youth Advisory Board

Call for Nomination UN-Habitat Youth Advisory Board


The Youth Advisory Board is a consultative body that provides valuable insights and recommendations to UN-Habitat on strategies to sustainable urban development. Established in 2008, the YAB has played a crucial role in mainstreaming youth perspectives and promoting youth participation in UN-Habitat’s programs and major events.

Now, in its latest term, the YAB is seeking passionate and dedicated youth to join its ranks. The board will have representation from each of UN-Habitat’s six regions and a commitment to equal gender representation.

The UN-Habitat Youth Advisory Board is co-hosted by the Balikesir Metropolitan Municipality (Türkiye), host of World Habitat Day in 2022.

This is your opportunity to actively contribute to shaping the future of urban development and ensuring that the voices of youth are heard and valued. If you are enthusiastic about sustainable urbanization and eager to make a difference, we encourage you to apply to become a member of the UN-Habitat Youth Advisory Board.
