After the success of the first initiative in 2018 - 2019, which mobilized 42 Youth Advocates (18-24 years old) in 27 countries, UNICEF, in partnership with UNV, is now looking for the second cohort. We are searching for 20 young, passionate, and skilled advocates to join us and become agents of change advocating for the protection of children’s rights.
