On August 12, we are celebrating International Youth Day. This year’s Youth Day focuses on the leading role of young people in eradicating poverty and achieving sustainable development through sustainable production and consumption.

We want to know what you are doing - on your own, with your community, with UNEP - to change your consumption patterns, the role you are taking to have a positive impact, or the choices and sacrifices that you are making in pursuit of this goal.

Share with us your story (300 words and 3 meaningful pictures) by August 3 on email at [email protected] or on social media with #SCPYouth

In the week of International Youth Day, UNEP will publish on its website  the most inspiring stories and create an online repository of all your actions and activities.

Help us to make your contribution and your work shine in celebration of August 12, International Youth Day.
