The event took place on March 26, 2025.
Speaker: Sofia Šillerová, Slovak Youth Delegate to the UN
The UNESCO Information and Documentation Centre at UKB, in cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs of the Slovak Republic and the Slovak Commission for UNESCO, organized a lecture entitled "The Youth Perspective on the Functioning and Significance of the UN". The participation of youth in political processes and the shaping of our world is extremely important, which is why the United Nations adopted the Declaration on the Promotion of the Ideals of Peace, Mutual Respect and Interpersonal Understanding among Young People in 1965. For this purpose, the Youth Delegate to the UN program was established, whose task was to involve young people in activities and decision-making processes within the UN. The Slovak Republic joined this program only in 2007.
The aim of the lecture was to introduce students from the invited UNESCO school to the functioning and importance of the extremely important international organization, the UN, in today's chaotic times from the perspective of a youth delegate.
