Youth and Peace: Elevating the Next Generation of Mediators

Young people make up over 60% of Africa’s population — a powerful demographic for peace. Yet many are sidelined from national dialogue and policymaking.

Turning Potential into Power
Youth are not just future leaders; they are present changemakers. Through programmes like CGPCR’s Youth for Peace Network, we equip them with negotiation skills, civic awareness, and leadership training.

The Role of Mentorship
We connect young mediators with experienced professionals, fostering intergenerational learning. When youth see their voices matter, they become defenders of peace.

Investing in the Future
Empowering youth is not charity — it’s strategy. CGPCR believes that today’s young peacebuilders are tomorrow’s diplomats, educators, and reformers.
