What we do

The SDG4 Youth & Student Network is composed of young education leaders and experts, who spare no effort to advance SDG4 – Education 2030 in their communities and at a global level.

Members are aged between 16 and 30 included. They are selected based on their experience on quality education and their personal engagement to advance SDG4 in their communities

For this reason, to join the Network, members need to be active members of national, regional and/or global non-governmental and not-for-profit organizations of youth and students working in a field related to SDG4 – Education 2030.

They participate in the Network in their personal capacity and serve for a period of two years. The current 2024-2025 cohort is composed of 152 members from 86 countries.
