Youth Consultation Preceding the 11th Session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime (COP11) | Date: Thursday 13th October 2022

UNODC is organizing a Youth Consultation on 13 October preceding the 11th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime (17-21 October 2022). The Consultation will facilitate a discussion between UNODC and youth actors working or associated with youth-led/youth-focused CSOs and academic institutions with community-based experience on the engagement of these stakeholders in UNODC mandate areas that are relevant to youth. The Consultation will be conducted in two tracks as follows:

Track 1) UNODC-youth wide engagement: Exploring opportunities through which UNODC and youth can effectively engage with one another. This part will involve UNODC offices working on youth-related topics to engage youth in an exchange of information through presentations and discussions. 10:00-13:00 HOURS

Track 2) Youth engagement in preventing and countering organized crime. This part will focus on how youth can engage in UNODC work related to transnational organized crime. 14:30-17:30 HOURS
