Statement of the Deputy Secretary General on May 11, 2016.

Extract:

The Security Council recognized the value and role of young people and young peacebuilders in its historic resolution 2250 (2015) of December last year. That resolution will, I am sure, turn out to be the equivalent for young people of what resolution 1325 (2000) is for women and security.
