"I've   continually  believed that   training  and   generation  are   effective  equipment  for   extrade . Being   a part of  Generation17 has enabled me to   expand  my   attain  and   hook up with  like-minded   folks that  proportion  the   identical  imaginative and prescient  of an equitable   global ,"   stated  Efe Johnson, a Generation17   chief  running  to   strengthen  get admission to  to sexual and reproductive   fitness  for   younger  women  and   girls  in her community. "Samsung and UNDP have given me the   possibility  to scale my   paintings  and   attain  5,000   younger  women  in Nigeria. Being   a part of  Generation17 has allowed me to   proportion  my   adventure  at   distinguished  boards  and   genuinely  sense  that   younger  voices are valued."

Similarly, Ukrainian   virtual  inclusion   suggest  Yurii Romashko spoke   at the  position  of   generation  and   the way it  has the transformative   capacity  to create   same  get admission to  and   possibilities .

Thanks to Generation17 and Samsung,   we're  capable of  leverage   virtual  equipment  to shut  the distance  among  rural   and concrete  groups ,   making sure  that   nobody  is left behind."

Zubair Junjunia,   founding father of  ZNotes,   a web  mastering  platform   supplying  academic  sources  to   hundreds of thousands  of   college students  globally,   emphasised  the collaborative nature of the event: "It   changed into  a   first-rate  possibility  to satisfy  younger  leaders and UNDP   group  participants  at Samsung's flagship store! I   loved  sharing how we've made   current  improvements  with AI, in a   area  full of  current  gadgets  leveraging such   rising  technology  This partnership has   proven  me   that after  public   and personal  sectors   paintings  collectively ,   we will  boost up  development  and   encourage  greater  younger  human beings  to   grow to be  energetic  contributors  in   constructing  a   higher  global ."

By showcasing their   paintings , they   stimulated  new   thoughts  and highlighted the transformative   ability  of   generation  in shaping a   greater  sustainable   global .

Fostering Collaboration for Global Impact
The Generation17 Young Leaders have   proven  that youth-led   tasks  are   important  to   constructing  a   greater  inclusive, sustainable and   stable  global . As   the sector  races   in the direction of  the 2030   closing date  to   obtain  the SDGs, cross-  zone  collaboration   may be  key to   using  international  extrade . As   the sector  will become  more and more more  complex,   agencies  like Samsung   ought to  overtly  collaborate with like-minded   agencies  to harness the   strength  of   generation  for   wonderful  effect .

"Since we   set up  our partnership with UNDP in 2019, we   were  pleased  to   guide  Young Leaders from   throughout  six   areas  and to make the Global Goals   greater  handy  via  generation .

Together, we're   displaying  how small   moves  can   upload  as much as  a far  large  effect ."

 
To   pressure  development  toward  the Global Goals,   younger  human beings  require   get admission to  that opens   possibilities  for them   to do so . The Generation17 initiative amplifies the voices of Young Leaders   who're  the usage of  modern  generation  to   cope with  essential  troubles  of their  groups  and   strengthen  the Global Goals. Samsung   stays  devoted  to harnessing   generation  to elevate  cognizance  and   encourage  significant  moves  now no longer  best  for Generation17 Young Leaders   however  for all   younger  human beings  to   make contributions  to lasting,   wonderful  extrade .
