The Secretary-General – Message on the International Youth Day
U N I T E D N A T I O N S N A T I O N S U N I E S THE SECRETARY-GENERAL -- MESSAGE ON INTERNATIONAL YOUTH DAY 12 August 2012 Today’s generation of youth -- the largest the world has ever known, and the vast majority of whom live in developing countries -- has unprecedented potential to advance the well-being of the entire human family. Yet too many young people, including those who are highly educated, suffer from low-wage, dead-end work and record levels of unemployment. The global economic crisis has hit youththe hardest, and many are understandably discouraged by rising inequalities. A large number have no immediate prospects and are disenfranchised from the political, social and development processes in their countries. Without urgent measures, we risk creating a “lost generation” of squandered talent and dreams.
