And we will be having a part of this during the event to go over these questions and other inquiries that you might have related to the conference. So what do we have prepared for today? I'm doing the opening and the housekeeping and then Elisem from the International Secretariat from Water will do, represent the campaign. We have the presentation of the youth to teach as well as the youth development plan agenda with Kazia. And we have a part of it about the special events, the side events and interactive dialogues. We will have some information about the youth briefing session and also the photo that we'll be taking in New York. And some key takeaways and brainstorming discussion, followed by a Q&A session and the closing remarks. I hope that is all clear. And if you have any questions and comments please feel free to jump and post in the chat. I know that some of you might already know me, but before I move to Elisem, I just want to quickly introduce myself. But I will also be posting in the chat later. I'm Dr. Isabella Spindula and I'm the membership engagement officer responsible for the Young Water Professionals within the International Water Association. And I'm also leading our activities in New York in partnership with Samuela Guida, Dr. Samuela Guida that is present here in the meeting and also our director Daniella Benfica on this. And without further delay, I will hand over to Elisem. Let me stop sharing my screen so you can share it. Thank you so much, Isabella. It's great to be here. Welcome everyone. So my name is Elisem and I work for the International Secretary for Water. It's great to see so many faces and put some faces to some names that I've been in contact with over the past few weeks. So before I get started, I just wanted to share with you a quick video. It's always more interesting to be able to see the key messages by image than reading them. So just give me one second and bring this up to you. So here we go. When it comes to saving the planet, is your glass half empty? Are you feeling anxious about where we're heading? Are you feeling cynical that our leaders are not taking this crisis seriously? Sometimes it might be hard not to feel hopeless. You feel like no matter what you do, it will never be enough to save the planet. Is your right alone? It seems impossible to change the world. But let me tell you about our movement and how we are still confident that together we can fill up the glass. The Global Youth Movement for Water brings together thousands of young change makers from all over the world to inspire concrete action and bold politics. Young people are proposing and implementing innovative solutions to help resolve the world's most pressing water issues. With many of them receiving great support from allies of all walks of life, we believe that the only way we can create a water secure world for all is by joining forces and uniting across generations, sectors and continents. Join the Youth Movement for Water Earth together. We can fill up the glass. Alright, so I'm super excited to present to you officially the Fill Up the Glass campaign. Some of you might already have seen this video on social media over the past few weeks. So we've been hard at work trying to bring together through a common campaign the voices of the hundreds of organizations that are part of the Global Youth Movement for Water towards this important moment that we all certainly are aware of. The conference coming up in just a few days. I'm going to present to you a little bit more about the campaign for those that are not yet aware how you can join and how hopefully we can use this as a tool to ensure that our messages that our voices are heard during this conference. So I'm going to have just a short presentation for you. So, water global challenge. So just a key a few key figures here but I'm sure that you guys can tell me even more about this and are even more aware about the current state of the water crisis worldwide. So 2.6% of the world parliamentarians are under 30 80% of wastewater is released in nature without treatment. 3.6 billion people are affected by poor sanitation 90% of natural disasters are water related. And despite the agents of change we the young people are rarely included in decision making process, and this needs to change. So why this campaign. I'll avoid the voice of young people around the world and create a movement that the world can no longer ignore influence both political will and action from decision makers for a water secure world. Of course, from March 22 to 24, the UN enter the UN Intergovernmental Conference dedicated to water will be held in New York, and we believe that this is an opportunity to get our voices heard. So who is behind this campaign for the over 370 youth blood organization and allies of the global youth movement for water. If you're joining us today and you're your own organization is not yet part of the movement. I'll put the link in the chat after my presentation, you can go and sign up right away. And of course, everyone is welcome to join this campaign whether you're part of the movement or not a youth blood organizations and allies are all invited to join the movement during the campaign. And this campaign is targeted to the youth worldwide and allies that wish to contribute act and influence pains and it's supported by catalyzed by the international secretary for water and supported by the Swiss agency for development cooperation and the government of the Netherlands. So what are we asking for concretely what are key messaging by coming together across generations and confidence we can fill up the glass all over the world use us we've been already taking action so many different ways. But now it's time that we know it's time that we step up at our decision makers also commit small things add up and every action counts. So there are five key demands. The first one is one per theme of the conference so the first one access to water and proper sanitation as basic human rights, especially for young women and girls, indicated funding for use for community based water solutions promoting transparency and accountability. And the second one is for youth participation and training for youth, especially young women to acquire knowledge and skills better tackle water and climate issues. The 30 30 30 target with many of which many of you might be aware of so inclusion of youth and water related mechanisms negotiations and decisions with the objective of getting at least 30% of youth representation of you 30 represented in all water related as an instrument of peace. And finally, an inclusive and permanent body be created within the UN to address water challenges. And you and we demand that you and youth and boy on water and youth advisory group on water representing different regions be nominated. How can you join the campaign so there's different ways, whether you will be in New York or not. So you can share there's the video that I've just presented to you the 1530 and 90 second version. You can get this on social media. We will have shirts for all of you during the conference during the youth briefing that we will be giving out so you're welcome to show your support to the campaign during the conference itself. I'll be sharing in the chat a Trello board if you haven't already received it to access all the material. So if you prefer, if you think that we need to be done is raise awareness first of all on these issues we've prepared some material that you can also use. Share what you're in what you and your organization are doing to fill up the glass we really want to shed light on all of the amazing initiatives that your organizations are already doing to hopefully influence change. And share one needs to be done to fill up the glass so we prepared a letter for decision makers that you can use with the five key messages. Please download this. Adapt it to the main issues and you are facing in your communities the main priorities and send this over to your decision makers make sure that they know that we're there that we're coming and that we intend to be heard. Organize an event so in the leap before or after the conference to amplify the voices of youth that will have been in New York but also the voices of youth all over the world. We all have a role to play whether we will be in New York or not. How about we organize walks for water all over or runs for water as there's a lot of campaigns on that as well going on right now. All over the world during for World Water Day to make sure that our voices are heard. Here are the key demands during your interventions at the UN conference so once again during the morning briefings. We'll get to that in just a little bit but we'll have the five key demands print out for you and we invite you to share these key messages during your different interventions during the conference. And finally create your own visual also be sharing all of the links in the chat in just a few minutes. This is the trailer board that we've prepared so feel free to use this share this on social media.

This is the landing page of the campaign so fill up the glass.org you can go directly on this page and reference to it as you share the campaign you'll have all the material all the explanation about our key messaging where this campaign came from and so on. As a final message from me to you together, we can fill up the class. Let's see this moment see this opportunity. It's really a once in a lifetime it's been 47 years and coming hopefully it will not be another 47 years before we have such a conference, but make sure that we use this opportunity I can't wait to meet all of you in just a few days now. And on that note, I will pass it back over to Isabella. I'm muted. So thank you Elisabeth for the presentation and don't worry she will be posting all the information related to the fill up your glass campaign in the chat. And without further delay, I'm looking for Kazia, Kazia from Unify are you here. So Isabella hi. Hi, I'm not sure because I was here but I'm supposed to present for Unify. You communicated this to me. Perfect. That's amazing. So, let me give you the co-host this and stop sharing. Yes. How do you sign up? Yeah, can you share it now? Yeah, I can access it. I'm trying to share. Okay, it should be visible now. Yes, it is. Okay, great. Hi everyone. It's nice to be here. I'm here to represent on behalf of Unify. Okay, I'm here to be present on behalf of Unify. So, let's start with introduction. Unify is the call us United International Federation or Festival of Youth for Water and Climate. We are basically a platform where young people, individuals as well as organizations can come together and take action with regards to water and climate. Our major mission is to bring young people from states to the to the sea and making tables and empower them, mobilize them towards action so that they are better able to take action in their communities as well as globally. Unify was presented during the briefing on the water conference in New York earlier. And in June 2022, during the Shambay water process, it was included in the final outcome document of the of the conference. You can see the text reflected on the screen which says we support and encourage the participation of young people to play an important role in the water conference. And further note with interest development of the YDPA Water and Climate Development Plan and Agenda. It's important to mention that this water climate you development plan and agenda is not something that only unifies coming up face. It is basically a joint effort of different organizations young people associated with different organizations. And I believe most of them are already present here in this session. So yeah, could as well everyone who who gave their inputs, some important youth demands that were consolidated during the process and will be presented at the water conference. Now, I will share some of the key milestones. It's basically a one year journey for advocacy and to get the support and lobby with different stakeholders for the development of the YDPA. So first of all, you can see, there was a group of unified members who presented at the EarthEx Global Youth Summit in Dallas, USA. Then during the Shambay water process, we conducted one validation workshop during the pre-conference youth session. Then at the high level political forum, a few members were able to showcase the work that we are doing with regards to development of YDPA. Next step was the validation sessions at the regional conference of Youth Asia and the Pacific, which was held in Philippines, followed by the one young world in Manchester. And then one of our team members was able to present it at the United Nations General Assembly session in the New York. Then a members of the Water and Climate Coalition of the WMO were able to present it at the World Water Week in Sweden, followed by the hydrohub youth symposium here in Geneva. And the most recent one was the presentation, as well as the validation session at quite a 70, which is the youth precursor event of COP conference of youth as well as at the COP 27 in Egypt, followed by the African Youth Climate Hub event in Morocco. So this was like a brief overview of from where we started and where we are as of now. I will go through an overview, a very brief overview of what basically YDPA is. So YDPA basically reflects on different demographics of young people across the globe. We basically divided the global representation into seven different regions. And then we try to assess the perceptions of young people towards the water and climate issues, especially in their local context. These perceptions reflect some specific gaps and challenges that these young people were facing in their local communities, as well as I would say also at the regional level. So we tried to connect these linkages during these different validation sessions. The responses were also get it through an online survey which was extensively shared by our partners across the globe. And then we found after qualitative analysis that these specific gas and challenges can be chunked into some major dimensions. So if you can see this yellow second second bar, which reflects five different boxes. So these five different boxes basically reflect the five key domains that we call as policy, the key problem dimensions around which these key problems and gaps and challenges were attacked. So these five problem dimensions are basically the crux of YDPA of what basically captures around the issues that young people are facing across the globe. And against these specific challenges, then we came up with the policy recommendations, youth demands, you can say that are reflected as policies, programs, projects and activities, or you can simply say three PAs. So YDPA is, I would say again, it does not specifically identify as a gaps and challenges but also provides the solution that different stakeholders can help young people to implement in their local areas to help solve this issue. So it's like a complete recipe, starting from the initial point to the final point, where if we get, if we are able to, you know, get the support from these young, from these stakeholders, we might be able to solve some issues. So with regards to these specific solutions that have been highlighted, now at this point, we are also, you know, encouraging different stakeholders to submit their commitments. There might be, you know, some stakeholders who already are implementing some youth oriented activities or projects in their particular domain. So we are now encouraging these stakeholders to help us outline all those solutions, which are like under their specific areas of interest. And then these solutions and commitments will be followed up by a proper monitoring and evaluation by the Unify team as well as stakeholders, so that we are at one page. And we are able to at least follow the progress of how these solutions will turn out. As of now, Unify is a family of 7,000 members from across the globe, representing 140 plus countries. And these countries are specifically reflected through to the nominations of 70 national focal points. We are still in progress to get some more focal points for the countries which already are missing. But yeah, it's a status as of now. And then moving on, since our highlight and focus is not just on advocacy, but also on the research side, we were able to publish YDPA at IAHR as well as for the T20 under the G20 basically. And these are some of the key solution dimensions as I was previously mentioning that YDPA also includes the solutions that was also reflected as 3PA. So these are some of the key solution dimensions. I won't go into details of all the solution dimensions, but just to highlight, if you see here the youth representation and engagement which is the first solution dimension as well as finance and financing. So these two solution dimensions are considered as entailing pillars, which means that they provide an enabling mechanism for all other dimensions with regards to implementation. So it's very crucial that we consider the importance of youth representation, as well as the financing for different solutions when it comes to the implementation. Then there are some specific, some specific three solution dimensions including the capacity development, data knowledge generation and innovation, as well as governance and management, which should be led by the CN makers and youth organizations, or I would say different stakeholders in general. Then the last three solution dimensions, which includes influence and advocacy, direct action and networking and partnerships. These three dimensions are something that should be implemented and put into practice by the young people themselves, be it individuals or be different youth organization. So this is how I would say that we try to pin and pitch different solutions in a form of three PAs under these specific solution dimensions, as well as goals. Now, how you can contribute. I mean this is a great opportunity that a lot of young people interested in water and climate are gathered at one platform so it's also an opportunity for you all. I mean even if you are connected within the organization, you can perhaps try to look into different projects which are already in practice and see how young people are being engaged in those projects. And if you would like to also submit those particular projects or activities to be included in the YDPA. You're also planning to highlight some of the key projects during the special event at the water conference. So, if you can submit it before 19, I think it would be great to showcase your project at the conference too. But until May 15, you can submit these projects if you have any questions feel free to reach out to the Unified Team via their social media pages and we will be happy to answer your queries. This is probably my last slide. So we are also organizing one session at the Microsoft building on March 21 at the water conference. So if you are attending in person, do join us there. This is already up on our social media page so you can probably go and check the details over there. These are our social media pages do like us follow us for the further updates and let's get connected. Yeah. So that was all from my side. Thank you so much. I'd be happy to take any questions with regards to Unified's work or with regards to YDPA commitment building. Thank you Isabella, over to you. Thank you Zaina. Let me share my screen on this now. So, yes, I'm sharing. So, following this part, I would kindly ask for at least some to explain a little bit what we are planning for this youth briefing session and also the photo group. Thank you so much Isabella maybe just a quick note. I see that we're having some technical difficulties and the meeting has reached its capacity we thought for sure we had a 500 capacity but we're having a little bit of technical difficulties so if ever any of your colleagues aren't able to join, we will just revert back to you after the meeting to see how we can make sure that all young delegates have access to the information and have the possibility to ask all of their questions. So we're really sorry about that but we will find a solution right after the session. Alright, so for the youth briefing and the photo ops, so we're going to have youth briefings for youth at the waterhouse every morning of the conference. So on March 22nd, 23rd and 24th. They're organized from eight o'clock am to 830 am. You're welcome to arrive as early as 730 am at the waterhouse I'll be putting all of the information in the chats regarding the address of the waterhouse link to sign up to register for the morning briefings. Basically, we have a capacity there's a maximum of 100 young people that can join each one of the morning briefings so depending on how many people sign up. We'll see if we'll have to prioritize or not prioritize but make sure to go back to you with the confirmation of your registration. If we have more than 100 people, we might have to separate young people between the young delegates between the three morning briefing sessions, but fingers crossed that will have place for everyone that's interested in joining those morning briefings. Basically, this is the moment for us to come together to share key highlights of the day that's just starting to share the key messages to get connected, meet other young people, whether from your own country or from other countries that will be there. Yes, it's 22nd, 23rd and 24th. Sorry, if I said otherwise, but thank you Nina for for just specifying that in the chat. So yeah, so please register beforehand only register if you really do believe can plan on attending. We hope to see as many of you there as possible. These are co organized by the international criteria for water, the water use network groundwater use network. And I'm missing the world is relevant for water. And I think that's it. And the central Asia use for water. And of course, all of the organizations that are part of the movement it's going to be a super short briefing so we only have 30 minutes. If you have any questions about the day, you're a little bit lost as to where to go. If you want to speak to people and you want to give them a point and a place to be able to gather and join this is the time and place to do so. Yeah, if you have any questions regarding the youth briefings, you can put them in the chat or we'll have a Q&A at the end and I'm glad to answer all of those. And regarding the photo op so on the 23rd. So again, we're going to be getting a reminder and a message, all of those registered to the briefing but also all of those on the youth database and in the WhatsApp group. So it's going to be organized on the 23rd at nine o'clock. So after the youth briefing we're going to go directly to the photo, the photo, the place we're going to be taking the picture with all young delegates this picture will then be shared with all media there will be some media there as well. So this is really our chance to show the world that young people are at the conference, we are there, we are ready to be heard and these are our messages so please put that in your agenda on the 23rd at 9am. So we're going to be taking the picture right in front of the UN so if ever you don't have the past to enter the UN building you will also be, you will still be able to join this opportunity. And it's not only for you the allies as well so any allies of the movement, any partners that you have that would like to show their support to youth for water they're more welcome that to join us as well. So I'll put again the direct address in the chat and the link to sign up to the morning briefing. And I think that's it on my side if ever there's any questions. Thank you Alison for that. So, let me share my screen back again. Yes. So now we are going over to the site events the special events and interactive dialogues on this. Instead of doing the presentation and saying the site event that you most attend we do invite some of the youth organizations that are here, and also the organization that are in person in New York. So if you want to open your mic and share the information about your site event. Please feel free to do it. And we prepared the final slide with all the information with the special events interactive dialogues that will be happening there. Elisa you have received a list of organizations that working to share information about their events. Yes. So I have a few people in mind that have already said they wanted to share a few events. So give them the floor and if ever you have an event. That's youth related that you are organizing that you wish to share and just put that in the chat and we'll make sure to give you the floor as well I know. A lot of you are organizing events so this is your, your chance to do your pitch and invite everyone to join your event. Please keep it super brief. We're about 20 minutes. I'm not mistaken for this part a little bit more maybe. But please keep it super brief and to the point to make sure that that we get to as many people as possible to start us off. I might put you on the spot because I don't know a lot of you are organizing I haven't met with you if you wanted to be your pitch but I might just put you on the spot. If ever you would like to pass your turn just let us know. We'll start off with Toby from my city. At least I wasn't able to hear you. Yes, yes sorry it's just different microphone settings and different kind of virtual platforms, but thank you so much for this opportunity and also it's great to see so many people I have one colleague that couldn't even join the meeting so that shows a great interest for this. But I wanted to promote an intergenerational event that I'm organizing to get a bit fun or developing water initiative it should help global water partnership and other other organizers that will actually happen just after the photo up on the 23rd so it will be Thursday 23rd 930 to 11 in the blue gallery that is just six minutes walking away from the UN so it's quite easy to to access and the aim of that session would really be to move beyond just inclusion to see how can we actually have a fruitful and effective dialogue between different generations, and thereby also show the capacity of young people to contribute to do the discussions and take part in the room on the same kind of premises as senior professionals so you're all very invited to join this event I already posted the link to the event page on New York Water Weeks website and there's also a link for the registration so please also register beforehand because we want to make sure that we have each mixed groups to make this this activity as fruitful as as possible. Thank you so much. Thank you so much, Toby. And so I think I will make sure to attend that event and it's going to be amazing so congrats on all that great work. I will now pass it over to Lisa from the water use network. Hello everyone. Hi Lisa. Thank you so much. Very briefly. So next week we have a very interesting event on disaster with production employment resilience. It's going to be focusing on the inclusivity and disaster preparedness. And we have a wonderful panel, joining us from UNESCO from global resilience partnership, global water partnership and WMO, and also Uganda ministry of water resources and conservation use what is that work. So we're going to be talking about how the global platforms are supporting useless projects on disaster risk preparedness. And what can you do to develop your project idea further so you can get inspired by what kind of support mechanism already exists. So that's kind of successful case studies you can learn from. So I will share the information in the chat. It is on Thursday 23 March at 930, and the conference room be, and I will post that in the chat so that you save it somewhere and happy to see you. Thank you. Thank you so much Lisa. I don't see anyone. Okay, thank you Claudia. So Claudia, if you would like to take the floor. Hi everyone. Thank you for for this base here. I just would like to share an event that I'm organizing with my organization of this talk on environmental issues. I'm talking about water governance and I'm moderating a panel related to increase knowledge sharing and inclusive decision making. So I've posted the details here on our webpage. This is going to be inside the UN headquarters. So if you, if you're a delegate if you can attend that would be great. I'm going to be doing the summary of this event later on, but I'm leaving the invitation here it's going to be on Thursday, March 23 from five to 615pm. Thank you. Thank you so much Claudia. All right, now I will pass it over to Nicholas from Earth Echo International. Thank you so much. Sorry I can have my camera on today but I just wanted to give a quick shout out to an event that I'm organizing with Earth Echo International. It's a little bit of a less formal event but we're organizing a few projection sites on some buildings around the city with some really cool water related images and messages from young people so we would love to have some young people join us at one of the sites, take some pictures on their social media. We don't have the time or location locked down just yet but as soon as I know I can send an update on the youth WhatsApp group, and I think it'd be a really cool opportunity to get a lot of young people together. Thank you. Thank you Nicholas. I see in the chat. I don't think you have any other people wanting to take the floor but I know Steven is here. Yeah, so you guys can go ahead. Oh, thanks Elisa. I know it's Madeline is also here and she also is under my name. Yeah, really quickly so we are also hosting an event at the blue gallery on March 23rd it's at 430pm we have a panel going from 430 to 530 and a reception afterwards. I've been sort of following the same theme as the event that will be happening there in the morning we're focused on intergenerational collaboration and reciprocal mentorship for climate and water advocacy so how can different generations and people across different geographies and come on another and come together to create solutions for, you know, really vibrant water future, and we're really excited that this is also the launch of a program called water core that is very specifically focused on career development and mentorship for young people interested in entering the water sector. So that will also be happening and I can send a link to our event right as well we would love to see all of you there there's going to be some really cool people from across water and environment both on the panel and in the audience Thank you Madeline. Yeah. Thank you for sharing. I will now hand it over to Amy to speak a little bit on Special Event 4. Thanks Elisa and hello everyone sorry I'm also leaving my camera off today I'm still a little unwell. As Elisa said, we are coordinating a special events on the last day of the conference and it would be really great to get the biggest turnout for the final event of the final of the four special events and it's on the topic of water leadership uniting for a sustainable world. It's organized by 14 different partners but about five of which are youth led organizations, and really the focus of the special events is we've got a couple key messages around the fact that water leaders are not only senior decision makers and politicians. They come from all generations, all sectors, all cultures, all walks of life, including youth women, indigenous peoples and local government authorities. And we're, we're really excited about the three hour event that we have crafted for this, and there's going to be some really really fun and interesting debates and profiling of different non traditional water leaders, some incredible musical performances, and would really encourage everyone's participation at this event on the final day. If you are registered and able to attend it is happening at the UN headquarters and conference room to and about 500 people can attend and it's first come first serve so I just needed it for a second. Sorry I really welcome everyone's participation in that event and and that's all thanks for the opportunity to plug it Elisa. Thank you so much Amy. Thanks. Now we will move to you. Is there anyone from special event three or special event to I asked on special event to is anyone on the call. Yes, I just dropped the link in the chat regarding the program from the UN. So, if you check there that is information about the special events interactive dialogues as well. Side events happening inside the UN headquarters outside the UN headquarters and the ones that are virtual. I see someone has also dropped a message on the Mina Gully run and I don't know if I think it's because he would you like to say a few words on the Mina Gully run. Yes. So, when we got to the Mina Gully run. So basically, for those of you who don't know her Mina Gully is a phenomenal ultra marathon runner who's been running 200 marathons all over the world to raise awareness about the global world crisis. And for those of you who'd like to see concrete solutions or at least show your desire to see concrete solutions the only thing that would be needed is for you to follow the website address that I just put down in the chat. And basically, sign up and then do a walk or run in blue in a blue t shirt. It will take very little of your time signing three minutes, one minute, perhaps if you're really really quick. Mina will also be at the UN water conference on March the 22nd on March the 22nd, and she would absolutely love to see all the water heroes and all the wonderful young people that are at this event. That I at this conference welcome her because imagine running for a very long time around the world and never seeing a finish line and your finish line is funny the wonderful people that make the change happen that we all came to the UN water conference to see. So if you want to see her it's March the 22nd at two o'clock. And if you want to welcome her you're more than welcome to she'd be happy to meet you and each and every single young person yeah he's got a bright vision of what to sector. Thank you. I'm not much of a runner but I'm going to make sure to at least walk by her side to that finish line. Walk as well. I know that there's also a huge youth event happening on the Monday so for those that will already be there during your quarter week. I was just wondering if anyone from the wave makers or if any organization that's helping organize the event on the Monday at the waterhouse. Anyone is here. I think that Eve was here from wave makers. Yeah, are you I know everyone has been kind of been trying to get in being pushed back out we're super sorry about that. But if ever anyone is here is heist or anyone from the wave maker is connected. I think that Eva is here. So we're putting you on the spot. Yeah, literally. So maybe we can put the link in the tad. So there's a, like a five hour use focused event happening on the Monday at the waterhouse, organized by the wave makers and other organizations. Other youth organizations, we can put the link in the chat as well to that. I think what will be the easiest is just for us to compile everything that was shared. Today, as well as other events that weren't necessarily presented to send this out to everyone to make sure you have a full view of what is happening. I just realized that I think I missed someone Cindy from Newcastle University had put something in the chat would you like to present it. Hi everyone. Nice to meet. It's a very good opportunity to meet you all. So, I'm from Project Water Security Hub, funded by the United Kingdom government. And it's about enable the water security to assist not approach. So we will be sharing experience from Malaysia Collaboratory which is myself will be talking about it. And then there's also from India, as well as other very respectful speakers from around the world. So you have the free time please drop by and visit us and we can connect more than happy to meet everyone here in the zoom. Thank you. Thank you so much to me. I'm just seeing Max who's here I think from WaveMaker has just mentioned that the registration form is closed for that event on Monday so from what I could understand maybe it's already at full capacity. So I apologize for picking that without knowing that it might already be a full capacity. But we will make sure to put all of these links in email or newsletter that we'll try and send out as quickly as possible to make sure that you guys have a full view of what is happening. And I will pass it back over to Isabella unless anyone else had any events they wanted to pitch or share about. I do have some of the events that I was involved with to share. Thank you on this. So IWA is letting three events, two online and one in person. The two online will be happening on the 21 of March. We have one on resilience and includes the sanitation in combating, combating climate climate change events and extremities. We're starting early at 7am. And the second one is communicating water, a game changer for acceleration and innovation. And this is a youth led event so our amazing YWP steering committee they proposed this event, and it was accepted. And the other one that is in person inside the headquarters is cross sector partnerships just to accelerate progress towards inclusive sanitation. And we have space only for. One person's inside. So it is mostly first came first served basis on this, and there is no registration for this one. And I drop it in the chat all the information about the site events that IWA is involved with. So, in case you have any questions please feel free to to reach out to me, and I will be ready to explain some of this. So we have any other organization that is keen to to present information about their events. Hi, Hasmik. Hi everyone. First of all, thank you very much for the organization of this meeting I see that from the number of parts from that is very important and relevant for all of you. There are a few events that the European Union Parliament for Water is involved but we are not the main organizer or co organizer. So but I think it will be interesting for you to know about them. So, first of all, on March 22 at from 2pm to 3pm, there is an event on water for smallholder farmers food for all. I see human right group, and it's not in the hot cutter but it's close to it I will put the information in the chat. Then there is another event on March 24 on water security and climate change adaptation as local challenges with global importance addressing the gap between knowledge generation and best practice application is an event it's provided by the by the Technician University of Dresden and United Nations University, you know, flores so it's more about how to it provides a platform to discuss how scientific advances in the field of water security and climate and we turned into driver of climate adaptation society policy the community of practice so more science plus, plus practice how we can, we can collaborate more and more, and the third event is also on March 24 from 2pm to 6pm. It's the delegation of the European Union to the United Nations in New York it's organized by the European Commission and other partners. It's on youth, it's a youth led dialogue for cooperation and sustainable water resources management with a huge agenda and the involvement of your speakers, so I will put information about those three events in the chat and I'll be glad to meet a lot by many of you in New York. Thank you. Thank you, Hasmik. Do we have anyone else that wants to share the information about the site event or feel free to post in the chat in case you have it also. So, I think that we can proceed to the following part. Hi, sorry just quick quick thank you Isabella and thank you Eliza. I just want to say to that it's worth looking at the New York Water Weeks events because that entire conference is free and it's happening at the same time. I think it goes from Monday to Saturday, and there is apparently a youth led March being organized for water. So just something to keep in mind if you can't get into certain events or if anything like that. Just check it out. It'll be really interesting and they're involving people as young as seven years old. So I thought that was very cool. Okay, thanks everyone. Thank you Emily, can you post in the chat the link. Yes, absolutely. Thank you. And thank you Eliza for putting it up. I didn't see her hands up on this. Perfect now we have in the chat also. The next part that we have prepared for today's key takeaways and brainstorming discussion, and I will invite for the month from the water youth network. Hi everyone. Thank you Isabella. So I'm part of the water youth networks partnership team. It's great to see so many familiar faces and names so thank you all for joining. This is going to be an interactive discussion so I will be responding to three questions and I want you all to also respond to the same questions in the chat. So, the first one is what will happen after the UN 2023 water conference so what do you think will happen. What is that stake for young people, and what, what is the way forward. Well, while you write I will present the water youth network. So the water youth network is a global and inclusive connector in the water sector with a vibrant community of students and young professionals from many different disciplines. For areas disaster risk reduction, water sanitation hygiene integrated water resource management and water governance so we have an amazing delegation coming to the conference and if you'd like to know more about us. Please do not hesitate to reach out via social media or talk to us or come to our events. Everything will be on our website or through social media. So, the conference is a unique opportunity for us to engage with many others with the same goals and drive to solve the world's water challenges. However, what will we do after the conference. We need to continue the momentum of that brought us to the conference in the first place or brought us to the global water space. It's important to follow up with the people that we meet all of the junior and senior change makers that we meet at the conference. And water is involved in so many aspects of our lives. So how are we educating the people around us, our family or friends or neighbors, because real change starts at home. So, all of us can make a difference in our own way. I think listening to it to each other is essential. Some of us have have had the privilege of being raised in societies without significant water challenges, but of course understand the crisis and are fueled by this need to help. But how are we providing space to voices from marginalized communities that face the worst effects of climate change communities that live the realities of the water crisis every day. Are we making space to hear and amplify the voices of the youth at the forefront of this water crisis. In rural areas in native reservations in conflict areas. So how are we making sure that those voices are also involved not only at the conference but afterwards. We need to also think about how we can influence water decisions. At a local level in our municipalities are regional governments for lucky even it federally, but to ensure that we are pushing our governments to work on. Or, I guess, recognizing the water crisis also work with the private sector I mean civil society I mean the only way forward is an on hands is all hands on deck approach. We need to understand the power we hold as as young people. I was looking at statistics and the UN says that 1.2 billion people of the global population are between the ages of 15 to 24 so that doesn't even include the ages from 25 to 34 and from 15 to 24 if it's 1.2 billion people already accounts for 16% of the global population. And this number will increase to nearly 1.3 billion by 2030. So, how are we making sure that youth are the vital resources that youth bring to the water space are really being amplified. I'm just going to check the chat. Sorry, maybe I'm speaking really quickly let me copy and paste some of the questions, because I want this to be an interactive discussions. What do you think is that stake for young people what is the way forward, what do you think will happen. After the UN water conference. What are some of your commitments that you hope to hold on to after the conference. I'd really like to hear what the 81 participants in the in this meeting. I can go first. Yes, please, please. Yeah, thanks for doing that. Okay, so I'm lucky and privileged to come from Canada apologies for the no video everyone as someone else said, I just looked terrible right now. So, I, what we're really focusing on in Canada is getting the establishment of something called the Canada water agency, which will be a separate government entity that will look over all fresh water, and eliminate the federal issue that right now waters spread across across 27 different government bodies, and we want it to have into one, and there really hasn't been a lot of focus on this as like Canada kind of has the myth of abundance where most people think that we're doing fine but we really don't treat our resources well. So, we really want to bring into that and I just want to say to any other Canadians in the chat. I think we're all trying to come together because our government is not really supporting and not really showing up for this event so, and Americans to because it will be. It will be a joint effort, but that's like the big thing we're focusing on so very political but yeah, looking forward to hearing everyone else. Thank you very much Emily and you know politics makes changes thank you. Anyone else want to take the floor or right in the chat. Fadouma. Yes, thank you. Yeah. So, thanks a lot for that introduction. So I have two ideas that we, some of us have been discussing before that I think is valuable to share here. One is, not everyone of us can go to New York. And as part of the global youth movement and many other other that's happening for in road to this conference and beyond is trying to be inclusive and trying to get the message beyond your right so one suggestion is if all those who are attending this this event, and both virtually and in person, if we could, you know, get a few takeaway messages, and perhaps put it in the WhatsApp chat or maybe we could create a more systematic way of, I don't know if it's going to be a Google form or Google Drive or something like that, where some of these messages could be collected from a youth perspective, and then that could be shared I think that will be quite valuable. So that's one. The second one is also, I hope the UN desa colleagues are here is, there's a lot of us young people attending I think this is probably one of the biggest conferences in the world where you have a significant participation it almost seems along the lines of copper even more. And I think that also means we are creating history, right. We're trying to get youth perspectives from this conference documented right after the conference to see hey what work well what didn't work well. What are some of the key messages and what do we do with this. So that we could collect through probably a survey, and if you and desa colleagues are probably interested in this we could do this jointly. And then once we have that data. We can do a lot of things with it right from writing impact blogs but also writing impactful opinion articles and and so much more on position papers for youth in the water sector, going forward so I think these two are things that we could do any fruits that we could act on. Thank you so much you you raised some very important points. So if drama had you said in the chat. What do I tell the young girls in the northern part of Kenya, which is arid and are on the forefront of the crisis, walking miles and what's World Water Day. What does that mean and what's the outcome of the conference for grassroots. Very important questions. So what was just pointed out I think ensuring that a coordinated youth outcomes are documented. I think that is the first step. Anything else or anyone wants to jump in. Yeah, please go ahead. Marie. Hi, everyone. My name is Marie for a future I am a New Yorker, but I'm currently in Cameroon. I work on SDG six to which is sanitation and hygiene. I have a start up here where I make the surgery parts from banana stem agro waste, and this is a dry season here in Cameroon and I see a lot of young girls who go millions of a lot of miles just fresh water for cooking and drinking. And I wonder most of the time, what do they do when they have their periods, how do they take care of themselves, especially for those using reusable towers. So, while we are excited about a degree the water conference. Let's think about what to do, especially for girls in these communities who are raped every day and beaten every day because of water. I think that's a common I want to make for all the youth to think about girls in rural communities. Thank you. Thank you for that and yet you're right it's very important to think about those girls in those rural areas. Delphine, I see your hand is up. Yes. Can you hear me. Yes. Hello. My name is Delphine. I'm from the Swiss Water Partnership use and so what I think could be an important part is that the young people who can actually attend the UN water conference to create sort of a very, you know, very transparent reports on how it felt for each of them. To talk to decision makers. So that way we could sort of come together and create. I mean, ideally, we could create a guide, or we could organize sessions on how it actually feels in real life to attend the conference as a young person and what are challenges, what are maybe good recommendations or tips, how, how you can actually get to the point and and reach someone who actually takes the decisions and sort of really go through that learning process together. Maybe this could be useful as you know, given that one of the our main objectives is to be involved in decision making. Then maybe we should also provide some support on how does this work very practically if I stand in front of a, of a person from the government, what do I say, for example. Yeah. Great. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Oh, sorry, you're muted. Can you hear me okay now. Yes. Hi for them. So I'm bugger you pronounce it but thank you. So I'm a PhD candidate studying in the US and from my background, I do translational research, where we bring the innovation innovative like experimenting things that when it comes to treating our waters treating contaminated water. And we have our work going on research work going on in Kenya. So I saw some questions from the people, especially in Africa and from my perspective, my point of view, as a scientist, I believe this would be a great opportunity for us to like bring together all the communities and at the same time we have the international financial organizations for an instance, I personally I'm working with Gates Foundation for our research so bringing in together research, and also the, like the grassroots levels who need these applications to be, you know, in their areas. And I think that's one way we can, you know, bring together all the resources we have after the conference. Thank you very much. You're right. Finance is very important. I see. Jugi. Jugi. Sorry, if I pronounced it incorrectly. Yes, Jugi or by middle name it's David. I got it. Yes, so thank you very much. I think I'm going to follow. First of all, I'm a graduate research assistant at Villanova University. It's located to I mean about two hours away from New York City. And mainly, I'm looking at sustainable wash in developing countries. So I think, from my point of view, I think we have to come up with a youth committee after this meeting, where we can sit together and we can think about the outcome of these. I mean, of these great events, we can look at wash inclusive where someone was talking about girls out of suffering around the world, we can look at the climate change impact on water availability and water quality. We can look at asset management tool on how to sustain all the water infrastructure, because when we're talking about water now we're talking about the climate change and we're talking about how climate change is affecting everything. And climate change is what it's projection when we talk about projection in 20 years and something like that. We, the youth, we are going to be, you know, suffering more from all of these. So I think we have to come up with a committee to prepare a document to think about, okay, what is the outcome of this meeting, what, what are our inputs. And also, the person who spoke before was talking about research with where I am really into this past six months, I went to, I was in six different countries, mainly four developing countries, where I was looking at all these things, water, asset management tool, climate change impact, water, mainly in Madagascar all the way down there. I just came back from Ghana last week where I was looking at asset management tool. And when you look at all of these, it's going to be impacted by climate change, but how can we get the resources, the finances to empower the youth in terms of trainings and all these things in terms of research and all these things. So we can come up with a document at the end of this meeting, we can think about a committee of youth, come up with a document where we can put all of our input and share it with you all. I think it can have a great impact. Thank you. Thank you, David, putting together a, a youth committee is really vital and one way forward. Lisa. Thank you for just listening to David is giving me ideas and I think one thing that's going to be super key is making sure that we're writing down during note and keeping track during the event of what is being said. What are the commitments being made, what are the key messages being made, what are the, what, what are the, who are the youth that are taking the stand and speaking on behalf of the youth movements. I'm not sure if David, this is something that you would have the capacity to lead on, or if this is all of interest but one of the ideas which Jared was to create kind of a common form or common Google document, we can all kind of contribute to on the different, there's going to be so many sessions at the same time, so many things happening in parallel, but if we can have one common document that we could all feed into as the week goes on with our inputs and with data that will have collected on the different events and it could also be something that people learning virtually and contribute to for the events that they will be following. So, if ever anyone has the capacity or the interest to support bringing putting organizing something like this in the very short time that we have left before the other conference. We can also, we can maybe discuss after and see how we can make this happen. Thank you so much. I see in the comments max. Yes, it is very important to lobby your capital to promote the interest and visions of the youth, especially after the event, I think. Sorry, I'm just looking at the, the chat, but okay, so thank you all very very much for your interventions all very important please keep the conversation going on the chat. So, back to you Isabella. Thank you. Thank you for them. And for everyone that contributed for the discussions I think that is really relevant that we keep thinking forward, what is happening next and how we can contribute to the discussion about not only your engagement and water sector, but how we can solve the challenge that we are facing in the water sector. Do we have any other comments, someone that wants to share some final thoughts about it. Okay. So, I think that now we can jump for the Q&A part of it. So, any questions regarding the water conference, please feel free to open your mic and we'll try to reply to your inquiry. So, Mustafa, you're muted. Okay, hi Unify. Hello. Hello. Welcome to be here. I'm Mustafa, water consultant at Yes, DRC, the biggest yacht associated in DRC. I can say you know DRC. Yes. DRC can unify and heal, help companies here. In those case, they are killed to action. But he will call, not secure yet representative though to funding. There is a problem for the young there to know how we can do to sustain sustainable water management. Thus, we launched a call to action and a cooperative view of 200 plants, Congolese, Southern and expert. We are happy to showcase in. Mustafa, I think we lost you. Can you hear me. So, while he is trying to reconnect and completed his question. Do we have another one. I think Elisa you had your hands up. Yeah, I just wanted to mention to when I just dropped it in the chat, but we have the chance to have with us two colleagues from UNDESTA. So we have a woman and Georgia that have joined us to be able to answer any logistical questions you might have regarding the conference, whether it be on any level of logistics. They're here to help us get find have helped us share with you and answer all of your questions so this is the time and ask those if you do have any. Thank you. Thank you Elisa. Mustafa we lost you while you are where you were speaking. So we could not hear the rest of your question. Okay. If you're if you're internet connection is unstable, can you type in the chat. So we can hear everything. Okay. No problem. Yes. Thank you. I have a hands up for Absek. It was actually me to raise my hand. And I think earlier I wish I spoke and it said to his name so I think maybe the names are getting mixed up, but I just wanted to yes say hi thank you Elisa for inviting us into this to be able to join by my colleague remain I believe also has her camera on. And we work at UNDESTA. We're working in the secretariat for the conference. I'm really excited I think someone said earlier. There's a huge amount of youth participation. And there's often you say interest around these sorts of moments but it's really amazing to see the extent to which young people are being able to join the conference I wanted to share a couple of the of examples basically just in case people wondering so we have. For example, thanks to ISW we have a youth matchmaking initiative to ensure that up to an even during the conference youth can be engaged with into to be invited to speak in their capacity not as youth but as experience on water issues and related issues. And of course then expertise being emboldened by the perspective and lived experience being young does bring. So that's an initiative that you can access it on a website if you'd like to sign yourself up as a speaker. I can share the link in the chat afterwards. We've also had a lot of young people registering we had an umbrella organization. I think it was ISW actually that helped youth not affiliated with accredited organizations register for the conference that also explains a little bit why it was maybe saying more registered youth. There will be young rapporteurs I think I think it was Abhishek referred to post conference analysis and things like that. I believe IWA and Sui have selected a group of two groups of young rapporteurs who will be collecting analysis both on site and remotely and will after the couple of weeks after the conference be able to share that. The UN water will be hosting the rapporteurs report so do be sure to check those out but that's I think one great example of how how young people are going to be able to follow the proceedings and give some interesting perspectives and analysis and also policy recommendations such want to also really emphasize that the water conference is going to be a huge moment of uniting the world for water but but more than that it's going to really feed into. We've got HRPF in July that's one of the focuses there is SDG6 the same for the Ecosoc Youth Forum which is even sooner. Then we have the SDG summit which is the midpoint review of the SDGs happening in September. So this is a really great chance to start hearing what people are saying around water, putting in asks, understanding where the policy how the policies are being formed where they've been made and being able to engage with them because this is not this is a moment in a in a bigger decade for water but also for the SDG agenda up until 2030. I'm going to unify doing a lot and I'm sure that they've already maybe shared that but they've got amongst other things a youth kit, which is a great going to be a great tool for young people to get the most out of the conference and there are many many many side events that have either co-organized by youth or that have young speakers or that have chosen. They specifically chose their target audience as youth when they filled out their forms on my colleague Romain or can go into that in a bit more detail. But I just wanted to share those sort of top line sort of highlights of what we can expect from the conference. And also finally that the water action agenda. I have to admit I've been dropping in and out of this conference this call except I'm not sure to the extent to which the water action agenda has been explored but that offers I heard someone talking about for example engaging with Canadian policy makers. And so the water action agenda is a collection of commitments from their voluntary commitments from NGOs from civil society from academic institutions from member states from IGOs. I've seen a few also I think young organized youth organizations have been putting in commitments, but also this water action agenda will be a fantastic tool for engaging with country level commitments so for example in Canada you can search by country whether whether the commitments have been submitted from. So if you are an organization working in a specific country, you can go in check the water action agenda see what's happening in your country maybe find other organizations you can collaborate with contact policy makers as always a contact person for every commitment so I just really want to encourage people to check out the water action agenda and make sure that it's being used to its full ability, so to speak. Very sorry for talking very long now, but I just if it's okay quickly hand over to my colleague, remain who's the focal focal point for the side events so she can just add a little bit more information if that's okay. That is perfect. Thank you. Back to you Roman. Hi everyone it's really nice to be here thank you all for having Georgia and I here. So I just wanted to introduce myself a little bit I'm one of the focal points for the side events. For this water conference, and as everyone has been mentioned in one of the ways that the unprecedented interest in the water conference has manifested itself has been through the incredible amount of applications we received to host side events. Currently, we have about 200 side events which will be hosted inside UNHQ, which are super interesting all on the theme of water with a really great regional balance so from all over the world stakeholders member states are hosting these side events. And we really encourage you as well to attend them. As George mentioned a lot of them have actually identified as youth side events. And I would also like to flag that there's a program for side events that will also be held virtually, and also that will be held in person but outside the UN headquarters so. Yeah, Georgia and I are really happy here to answer any of your questions. Yeah, that's all for me. And one of the questions that I have been receiving a lot is regarding how we can collect the badges to access the UN headquarters. Yeah I can jump in and answer that so one thing I would really say is that the next seven days is extremely important to keep a very active awareness of your inboxes. Because all information that is confirmed will be sent out to to all registered participants. So the past office will be open I think there's a new information, send out this afternoon, so that will include more information on how to collect passes, but that it will be a matter of collecting a grounds pass from the the office on, I think it's East 45th. So it's just outside of the of the UN headquarters, but the exact opening times of that office will be shared. I believe this afternoon. Thank you. Do we have any questions for them. And I'll quickly add as well that to collect your pass as soon as as soon as you can so as soon as you arrive, I strongly recommend to collect your pass. Just to avoid the rush of the actual days of the conference if you are arriving before the conference. That's a really good recommendation. Catch up. I can see that you had your hands up. Feel free to open your mic. Can you hear me. Okay, do we have any other questions. You're very, very faintly. So maybe you would be best if you put your question in the chat. I have some questions for, for example, I have some ideas about how to, to interact or to improve what it is to see to read it according to your department. And I don't know if you can forward some of these my ideas. So we have a kind of website. It was very low for me, and I could not get everything from from your question. Do you mind typing it in the chat. I think I just something about having sort of where to put ideas of some sort of online forum. I can't speak to that but what I can say is then again this week great opportunity to for example in the, if you search for the region that you're based in you'll see there that the organizations or ministries that are making commitments, and that you could for example share your, your ideas directly with them, which would be a great way of being able to say influence policy. Thank you. I could not hear you at all. It is clear for you. Yeah. So, I mean, if she wants the link now. Any other questions. Maybe one question. Sorry. Yes. Yeah. So the next is you and desa then planning you said you were planning some analysis with one get some perspectives from participants in person you and desa and you and water together, probably doing something. So that's you and water partner led initiative so it's IWA and suey are leading that and you and water will be hosting the reports. No, I was just wondering since we have this really lively group of people on the WhatsApp chat since we're connected to so many people plugged in. I was wondering if, if we could do something more systematic you know as part of because there are organizations and then there's also the movement which is the movement on water, which every organization that's involved is kind of a partner in it right so I was just wondering from that level is, is there something that's of interest between desa and as the official host of the conference, and this movement is, is there some some possibilities to leverage that. You know and I think it's really like you say there's a lot of organizations mobilizing around the conference and that's really amazing and it's amazing to see the sort of engagement in webinars like this. What I would say not to repeat myself, but the water action agenda is a fantastic place we start being able to input these sorts of. For example, it could be a commitment from the, from the say global youth movement for water based on what was seen at the conference, how those commit how you'd say decide to compile that information is, of course, super like personal to each organization or each movement. I do take note of that suggestion and I'll bring that back with me, but as of I just to set the correct expectations there's no, except for those young reporters there's no planned post conference engagement. I would say a great place to look also for resources on after the conference as well if you, if people want to access as something of an analysis is ISD. If you're aware of them they tend to cover a lot of usually a lot of UN conferences often with negotiated outcomes but that they will be covering the water conference. Three to four days after the conference they'll have an 8,000 word summary. So that'll be a fantastic resource to be able to continue building on what happens during the conference and also for movements to strategize around or to provide feedback to. Thank you for sharing the thing that and also be doing daily updates as well that will be a little bit more digestible than 8,000 words I think there'll be around 500 words. Thank you Georgia on this. Do we have any other follow up question. Hi, do we have another question. Now this is the time that we have to, since we have on this present here. Any other final comments. Do you have anything on this.
