Engaging young people in education policies and programmes is crucial to building peace and promoting social transformation, according to a global policy forum hosted by the International Institute for Educational Planning Policy Forum in Paris, France, last month.

UNICEF podcast moderator Femi Oke spoke with two of the 250 forum participants – Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports in the Republic of South Sudan, Dr. Cirino Hiteng Ofuho, and youth activist and Director of the African Youth Initiative Network in Uganda, Victor Ochen – about the links between education and peacebuilding and the challenges to ensuring active youth participation.
