As the 80th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 2025) convenes in New York, the Africa Youth Growth Foundation (AYGF) stands among global leaders, policymakers, and development actors shaping solutions to today’s most pressing challenges.
For AYGF, UNGA is more than a global gathering, it is a platform to elevate the voices of African youth and vulnerable communities, ensuring they are heard in the rooms where global decisions are made.
Championing Real Voices, Real Solutions
AYGF’s participation underscores its mission to make global commitments to peace, development, and human rights truly inclusive and grounded in lived realities, the families battling food insecurity, the children striving for education, the women and girls demanding equality, and the communities on the frontline of climate change.
Through side events, dialogues, and strategic meetings, AYGF is showcasing community-driven solutions from Nigeria and across Africa, practical interventions in public health, education, livelihoods, climate action, and humanitarian response that have proven successful and hold potential for global adaptation.
Building Partnerships for Impact
At UNGA 2025, AYGF’s delegation is forging partnerships with UN agencies, governments, donors, and civil society organizations to amplify its impact at home. These collaborations are unlocking new resources, fostering innovation in youth empowerment, and aligning strategies that advance sustainable development and social inclusion.
A Commitment to Dignity, Equity, and Resilience
For AYGF, UNGA 2025 represents both an opportunity and a responsibility, to reaffirm its unwavering commitment to dignity, equity, and resilience, and to remind the global community that lasting change begins with grassroots voices.
“We carry with us the hopes and aspirations of young people and vulnerable communities across Africa, determined to turn their stories into meaningful global action.”
As the world comes together to chart a path toward a sustainable future, AYGF continues to ensure that Africa’s youth are not just represented, but respected as partners in global progress.
