Health Diplomacy Youth Network

The Health Diplomacy Youth Network was launched on September 24, 2024, in New York at the sidelines of the UN Summit of the Future. 

The Network, part of the Advisory Committee of the Health Diplomacy Alliance, serves as an advisory and collaborative platform for young leaders to contribute to governance, policy formulation, and initiative development related to health diplomacy.

It promotes youth-led and youth-informed approaches to health diplomacy, advocacy, and political commitment for health improvement, ensuring that young voices help shape the our future.

How we do it

We focus our efforts on One Health, environment and climate change, sustainable health financing, and digital health to address the most pressing and interconnected global health challenges.

These areas reflect the growing risks posed by pandemics, climate impacts on health, shrinking health budgets, and rapid technological transformation, particularly in LMICs.

By engaging these priorities, we analyze major political complex and promote integrated advocacy efforts that can translate into innovate ideas  and initiatives lead by youth to ensure policy commitments are translate to tangible health implementations.
