Last Friday 26th May in the University of Rome Tor Vergata, Fondazione Aurora was delighted to participate in the second <\/span>Global African Youth Dialogue<\/span><\/a>, the intergenerational dialogue launched in 2022 to advocate for diaspora African youth engagement in the continent\u2019s development agendas, policy and decision making process.<\/span><\/p>\n

This edition brought Africa youth and the goals of the <\/span>AU Agenda 2063<\/span><\/a> into focus under the title <\/span>\u201cInclusive Africa: Harnessing the power of Africa\u2019s Next Generation\u201d <\/b>with a strong level of guest animated the conversation, moderated by Mr. <\/span>Lukhani Rogol, from the World Food Forum<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms. Giulia Tariello, Italian Youth Envoy to the United Nations, opened the discussion pointing out the \u201c3Es\u201d: <\/span>Educate, Engage Empower. <\/b>Creating a better environment is indispensable to empower youth that can find solutions to global complex challenges. She led the floor to our CEO Marta Sachy who addressed the “<\/span>Investing in the Future: Prioritizing Education, Entrepreneurship, and Innovation for Sustainable Development\u201d<\/b> and presented Fondazione Aurora as a practical application of these words.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mr. Victor Mugo, head of local Youth Action at the World Food Forum addressed the challenges about ensuring food security showing how innovation is moving the Agriculture sector to <\/span>AgriBusiness <\/b>for African youth, inviting everyone to pick the opportunities and act for a better food system.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conclusions were held <\/span>by Mr. Humuza Gisa Roick, the founder of the Global Africa Youth Dialogue, who remarked that youth are the potential leaders that could drive to a sustainable development and it is today that we need the Africa we are imaging tomorrow.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conference then kicked off the first edition of the <\/span>Global Model African Union<\/b>, the first simulation of the African Union Assembly attended by university students on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th May in the halls of the European Parliament in Rome.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once again the partnership between GAYD and Fondazione Aurora has been renewed by introducing special news for this year: we combined the Global Model African Union with the <\/span>WikiAFrica Education Programme<\/span><\/a> to spread the voice of young Africans for a greater resonance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t
