Let’s Chat! Meet our Youth Leadership Council Members

1:00 PM – 2:00 PM EST
Accessible worldwide via conference call (RSVP required)
Global Fund for Children is committed to raising the voices of young people around the world. To achieve a more just society, youth must have the chance to be heard; to influence policies, programs, and institutions that impact their lives; and to access resources that enable them to lead lives with dignity and independence.
The webinar will introduce our Youth Leadership Council, which serves in an advisory capacity to inform our strategy, as Global Fund for Children adopts a more youth-centered approach. Webinar attendees will have the opportunity to engage directly with council members.
On Tuesday, February 12th at 1:00 PM EST, join us for an intimate discussion online with some of Global Fund for Children’s new youth advisors. Call-in details will be shared with registered attendees via email.
