The document presents the Youth, Peace and Security Roadmap, developed by UNESCO on the basis of online consultations with young people aged 18–30. It outlines the YPS agenda, including United Nations Security Council Resolution 2250 and subsequent documents, and reflects young people’s understanding of the concepts of “peace” and “security,” including the distinction between negative and positive peace and the human security approach. Particular attention is given to the principles of meaningful youth participation, the analysis of youth motivations, and an overview of existing initiatives.
