The Youth Water Forum began accepting video submissions on June 1st, 2023!
Water-related issues have become increasingly prevalent worldwide due to recent climate change, resulting in devastating floods, heavy snowfall, and droughts. Water is a vital theme that intersects with the entire United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and is intricately linked to the history of our communities.
Resolving water challenges requires collaborative efforts that span across generations. That’s why we are calling upon young citizens, the leaders of tomorrow, to create videos centered around the theme of water.
