The work that you are doing for peace and youth across the globe is very important and serves to build a better world for all. The world today is home to the largest generation of young people that constitutes a tremendous and essential asset worth investing in. With this large and increasing number of young people across the globe, it is abundantly clear that it is only by engaging and working with them, supporting them in creating the conditions allowing them to progress and play an active role, that the international community will be able to achieve peace, security, justice, climate resilience and sustainable development for all.

I take this opportunity to wish you the best in your programs on global peace and youth involvement and especially with the upcoming ceremony of project BookPecker!
