Without bold, coordinated action, the gap between aspiration and opportunity will fuel instability, deepen inequality, and squander the most powerful engine of sustainable development: the next generation.
Hosted by the Government of Qatar, the 2025 Generation Unlimited Global Leadership Council (GLC) meeting, held during the UN General Assembly, brought together Heads of State and Government, CEOs of global companies, leaders of multilateral and civil society organizations, and youth changemakers to chart a bold new path—moving from fragmented projects to national-scale solutions to generate youth employment and entrepreneurship opportunities, co-created through deep government-business-youth collaboration.yt:video:qdm8P15RMdUqdm8P15RMdUUCJvDBokxt2xPqcl3D9OaeJg'We must rise together if we are to beat the clock' – PM Mia Mottley at #GreenRising launchGENERATION UNLIMITEDhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJvDBokxt2xPqcl3D9OaeJg2025-06-26T19:35:05+00:002025-09-26T17:22:09+00:00'We must rise together if we are to beat the clock' – PM Mia Mottley at #GreenRising launchIn her first address as Global Chair of #GreenRising, Prime Minister of Barbados Mia Mottley laid out an urgent agenda for our planet’s future.

This dynamic event brought together youth leaders and senior stakeholders, policy makers and development practitioners from across sectors in an intergenerational dialogue to discuss education, skilling, employment, and entrepreneurship. The session emphasised that youth are not just beneficiaries—but co-creators, consultants, leaders, and changemakers.
This session was structured around two intergenerational dialogue segments — Livelihoods and Entrepreneurship & Skills, showcasing Public-Private-Youth Partnerships (PPYPs) in action and underlining the urgency of youth-led transformation.yt:video:90jLC5vBbPU90jLC5vBbPUUCJvDBokxt2xPqcl3D9OaeJgCelebrating the Achievements of Young Changemakers in the BeGreen Africa ProgrammeGENERATION UNLIMITEDhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJvDBokxt2xPqcl3D9OaeJg2025-03-27T17:13:36+00:002025-06-10T02:31:19+00:00Celebrating the Achievements of Young Changemakers in the BeGreen Africa Programme🌱 BeGreen Africa: Empowering Young Entrepreneurs for a Sustainable Future! 🌍

Based on the Indian government’s Lifestyle for Environment - LiFE initiative, Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change along with YuWaah and UNICEF created the Meri LiFE platform.
More than 25 million pro-planet actions were reported through the Meri LiFE platform towards environmental conservation and adoption of LiFE behaviours.
Siraj and his group of volunteers lead weekly clean-up drives at the Ganga river and report their pro-planet actions on the #MeriLiFE application. So far, their campaign ‘Insaan Teri Ganga Maily’ has managed to remove over 15,000 kgs of waste from the river!
Their proactive efforts are also driven to reduce e-waste, save energy, conserve water, say no to single-use plastics, and adopt a healthy lifestyle.
This group of young people is a testament to how #GreenSkills in action can go a long way in conserving our environment.
