2026 ECOSOC Youth Forum

Tune in to SDG Media Zone Conversations!

Join the United Nations Department of Global Communications during the 2026 ECOSOC Youth Forum from 14-16 April and hear about the transformation and solutions needed to accelerate action on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

As a global platform for dialogue, the ECOSOC Youth Forum will bring together young people, Member States, the UN system, and other partners to exchange ideas, showcase innovative solutions, and strengthen youth engagement in accelerating progress on the SDGs.

The SDG Media Zone extends these discussions beyond the policy space and into the public sphere through impactful interviews and conversations on issues that matter to people everywhere.
