In December 2015, with the adoption of UNSCR 2250, the UN Security Council formally recognized the critical role young people play in building and sustaining peace. The WFUNA Youth Seminar: Kampala took place in Grand Global Hotel from November 22 to 24, 2017. The seminar brought together over 80 young women and men from 13 different countries (Canada, Chad, Democratic Republic of Congo, Finland, Kenya, Malaysia, Nigeria, South Africa, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda) either as UNA youth representatives or as external guests. The main objectives of the Seminar were to promote UNSCR 2250 on Youth, Peace, and Security and to enhance the capacity of the WFUNA Youth Network to support its implementation.
