Document 42 C/INF.13 reports the conclusions of the 13th UNESCO Youth Forum held at UNESCO Headquarters on 14–15 November 2023, focused on the social impact of climate change and the need for an equitable climate transition. It includes a “Call for action”, global recommendations and region-specific recommendations (Europe/North America, LAC, Asia-Pacific, Africa, Arab region). Themes include mainstreaming youth participation in decision-making (including a 30% target), financing and support for youth-led initiatives, youth health and well-being (including eco-anxiety), greening education and skills for green/blue economies, ethical digital/AI approaches, human rights, and culture–nature linkages. An annex lists five youth-led projects selected for support via the UNESCO Global Youth Grant Scheme.
