Young leaders from around the world issued a clear call for action at the 2022 IRENA Youth Forum.

IRENA Global Council on Enabling Youth Action for SDG 7 brings together 18 young leaders, government representatives, expert practitioners and delegates from different institutions and regions, to develop and adopt an action plan with concrete initiatives that can drive forward youth-led action on energy access and the transition to a renewable energy future.

At its annual Youth Forum, IRENA offered a platform for a dialogue between youth and global pioneers. The Forum brought together 140 young people from 50 countries and diverse backgrounds under the theme “Empowering Youth to Lead an Equitable Energy Transition for a Sustainable Future”.
