In an effort to strengthen participation of young people and to ensure that their voices are heard, and their needs reflected in the issues that affect their lives directly, UNFPA Lesotho would like to establish a Youth Advisory Board (YAB). The YAB will assure that the UNFPA and national stakeholders will strengthen engagement of young people and benefit from their views, insights, and ideas in aiming to create a sustainable environment. The role of the YAB is to guide the actions, programming, and implementation of the UNFPA Lesotho in line with the perspective of the young people, their rights, and needs.
