In this episode, we featured Douglas Ragan, Chief of the UN-Habitat Youth and Livelihoods Unit. Doug tells us about his work to understand the needs of the demographic comprised of 19-to-25-year-olds through the Global Youth-led Development Series research, of which he co-authored. Doug also shares with us the various initiatives UN-Habitat is leading to help youth-led organizations succeed in developing countries around the world. Through the Urban Youth Fund, he describes a few stories about youth-led organizations that received funds from this initiative and are improving the lives of women in India and Pakistan. Doug also talks about his work with the Secretary General and about the #YouthNow Campaign, which has the goal of mobilizing the youth to bring awareness and action for development issues. He encourages all of the world's youth and beyond to participate in spreading awareness about and take action to tackle the problems that both developed and developing countries face. We finish our conversation with Doug's inspiring message to the youth, encouraging them to change the world around them.
