On June 30th, Proyecto Hombre, in collaboration with WFAD Youth Network/Core Group conducted the second session of the Thematic Discussions on Youth Engagement, diving into the question “How do we harness the potential of young people to curb drug-related problems worldwide”. Since the question could only be answered by actively involving youth in the discussion, the webinar was entirely driven by youth. During the webinar, the Global Youth Declaration on Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery was presented, as well as statistical outcomes of the Global Youth Survey, while youth from around the world showcased their activities within their communities, highlighting the strength and potential of young people.
