Today was beautiful!

Thank you for making International Youth Day 2026 by Imara what it was.

To our speakers and guests, thank you for sharing your time, stories and perspectives with young people.

To every young person who showed up, brought a friend, shared an idea, asked a question, joined a conversation or simply chose to be in the room, tunasema ahsante!

To our partners, and Mark Appeal, our service providers, county delegates, Imara Fellows and Alumni, thank you for being part of the journey.

To our incredible volunteering team, thank you for the work behind the scenes that made the day possible.

And to our hosts, thank you for opening your doors and giving us a space to gather, connect and celebrate young people.

Today reminded us that our contexts may be different, but many of our aspirations are similar.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL YOUTH DAY!

“Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.”

A powerful reminder from Gabriel Achayo, the executive director, AYLF Kenya: being young is not a limitation. It is a gift.

It is an opportunity to serve. An opportunity to lead. An opportunity to challenge the narratives we inherited and create new ones.

As we set the precedence for Africa, our generation cannot afford to wait for permission to lead. The future is not something we will simply inherit. We are shaping it now.

In our speech.
In our conduct.
In our love.
In our faith.
In our courage to act.

We are young. We are capable. We are here. And our time to lead is now.

Today, we celebrate all young people across the globe for their power, energy and synergy in advocating for and creating a better world for everyone!

We may be of different skin colours, backgrounds, ethnicities and speak different languages. We may come from different parts of the world and carry different stories. But deep down, we share many of the same aspirations.

Aspirations for good, responsible and responsive governance. Aspirations for a peaceful and just world. Aspirations for opportunities, dignity and a better future for everyone.

And today, we want to hear your aspirations too!

What do you aspire for?

What kind of world do you want to see? What kind of future are you hoping to help create?

Happy International Youth Day!
