Day 3 will capture Youth engagement toward girls and women’s education. A variety of national and international youth associations, networks, and leaders will come together to identify challenges, recommendations, and innovative and youth-led solutions for the advancement of girls and women’s education in Africa. The plenary and side events will also seek to brainstorm on and showcase youth contributions to the implementation of the theme of the African Union Year of Education.
