An official OGP co-validated forum will bring together 200 participants and lead to the adoption of a “Youth and Open Governance” Political Declaration. An advocacy report will be produced, public commitments will be collected, and a citizen monitoring space will be created to ensure implementation of the recommendations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

500 citizens’ proposals will be collected in the five target zones. The analysis of these proposals will result in a synthesis that will be used during the political dialogue. This will support post-forum advocacy and generate useful data for participatory monitoring of OGP commitments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
