Paragraph 1, page 56
Youth empowerment and inclusion 66 percent of the Palestinian population being under 30, there is an opportunity to reap demographic dividends from investing in young people’s education, health, well-being, and productive capacities. Young people from across the fragmented Palestine must
be provided with the space and opportunities to participate as active citizens in society, to access
gainful employment and economic opportunity and to improve their mental and physical health.
Across the four UNSDCF outcomes, the UN will target youth as political and civic actors capable of
initiating and implementing meaningful change and articulating a vision for the future of Palestine. It will work to provide mechanisms and safe platforms for meaningful youth engagement with Palestinian
institutions, including through volunteerism, as well as initiatives to promote cultural awareness
and young people’s role in combating violence and peacebuilding, in accordance with UN Security
Council Resolution 2250 (2015) on Youth, Peace and Security. Training and upskilling opportunities
for Palestinian youth will be prioritized to improve their employability and ability to exercise control
over their resources and life choices, leading to improved health and wellbeing.
