The United Nations Global Alliance for Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for Development today launched the website of the Forum on Youth and ICT for Development, to be held on 24-26 September in Geneva, Switzerland.
The Youth Forum aims to involve young people in discussions with policymakers, thought leaders and representatives from the private sector and civil society, and to explore ways to empower them and encourage their full participation in society through the use of information and communications technology.
The website will feature information and updates about the Forum and includes a blog to stimulate conversation within the Global Alliance’s main areas of concentration -- education, entrepreneurship, governance and health.
