- The African UN Youth Delegate and Representative Program AUNYD is not an official UN program. The UN Youth Delegate Program is driven and owned by UN Member States. Official Youth Delegates are always exclusively selected by UN Member States. The civil society youth representatives we select at the AUNYD have a better chance to become national UN Youth Delegates through our training and support
The Representatives had invited prominent guests from international organizations and diplomacy, partners friends and family. The day was filled with meeting old faces, taking the time for critical assessments the year, a podium discussion, moving speeches, and a certificate handover. Moreover, the Representatives presented a film documentary on their work.
The German embassy honored the Representatives with a visit of the vice ambassador and his team. In his speech, the German representative stressed how impressed he was with the diplomatic demeanor and clear vision that the representatives had demonstrated throughout the year.
The 2022 cohort looks back at an exciting year, but they also look forward. You might ask: “What will 2023 and 2024 bring for Sudan and the region and how can the Sudan representatives participate in these developments?” Rest assured; this is not goodbye! CRISP has a lot more planned for the future of Sudanese and African UN Youth participation and we will unveil something very exciting very soon. So, stay tuned for big news in January!
