This event, being organized during the 10th Anniversary of the ECOSOC Youth Forum, is a unique opportunity to further engage in dialogue with the Member States on the Call to Action that was developed by youth with disabilities through the global consultation and their intervention at the 13th COSP. It is also an opportunity to think together about specific issues of relevance to youth with disabilities as well as their broader role in enabling and promoting sustainable development, and the barriers to be addressed to ensure the full and effective participation of youth with disabilities across all intersectionalities.
