STULNAB 2025 | Panel Discussion: The Role of External Stakeholders in Advancing Leadership Skill-Based Education

“As a development organization, we are always ready to support initiatives that empower youth and contribute to the SDGs.”

Mr. Ivo emphasized that key stakeholders in advancing education include:
➡️ School administration
➡️ Government departments in charge of education
➡️ External partners working with the government to build relevant and practical curricula.

“No stakeholder can do it alone. We must collaborate.”

He noted that UNDP has multiple platforms and initiatives focused on youth leadership, social innovation, and SDG implementation, but many people lack awareness of these opportunities.
He expressed his willingness to share more information with schools and community-based actors to bridge that gap.

Mr. Ivo’s message was loud and clear:
🟦 Partnerships are the bridge.
🟧 Youth are the future.
🟩 Let’s empower them together.
