Undp asia pacific youth empowerment 2018 int...Mr Nyak
Happy International Youth Day and welcome to the latest update of UNDP Asia Pacific’s Youth
Empowerment initiative. This year, the theme for International Youth Day is “Safe Spaces for Youth”.
This refers to civic spaces, physical public spaces and digital spaces which allow young people to engage
in decision making, participate fully in their communities and interact virtually with others across
borders. In order for young people to be able to effectively contribute to social and economic
development, it is crucial that these spaces are inclusive of all youth.
In many countries in the Asia-Pacific region, as in the rest of the world, youth are effectively excluded
from decision making and political forums, and their access to and participation in public spaces is
restricted. This is particularly true for young women and other marginalised youth, and further
entrenches existing social tensions and inequalities.

Call for Papers Radio Asia Presentation (1) VOTY Radio circa 2006POCHOLO GONZALES
ABSTRACT This is the presentation of Voice of the Youth Network (www.voty.org), Philippines for the Radio Asia 2006 Conference and “Broadcast Asia 2006”. The presentation covers both the topics “COMMUNITY RADIO – RADIO ACTIVISM AND GRASSROOTS RADIO” and “RADIO AND THE WORLD WIDE WEB”. Contents of this presentation include the background of the organization; specifically in its radio and Internet experiences as an effective means of reaching out to the community; the breakthroughs of the organization on its media projects and it’s pioneering activities in the field of Youth Media. VOTY has been given free airtimes by radio stations that truly believe in our advocacies and mission to the Filipino Youth. This is a proof of how worthy our cause has been throughout the years. VOTY believes that the synergy of radio and Internet would create a more powerful impact. Both technologies would compliment one another in providing better services and realizing the organization’s goals. Radio should not be threatened by emerging technologies like podcast, and this paper would precisely prove that. Young people have always been a powerful, moving force. They are no longer potentials but people that already made things possible.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

Ms. Ediola Pashollari, the Secretary General of WAY in her welcome remarks

WAY firmly believes that, taking every action necessary to increasing youth
connectivity and harnessing the potential of their right to sustainable, peaceful
and inclusive society, is the key to getting results and to stimulating social and
economic benefits for the masses around the world. WAY calls out to its
members around the world, and other stakeholders, to uphold the importance
of sustainable development and armistice declaration.

INTRODUCTION
The World Assembly of Youth (WAY), for the past fifteen years, strategically
tackled youth issues with a guided objective which was governed by three
Millennium Plan of Actions (MPAC). The contents of these plan of action was
delineated to ascertain and achieve the Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs), set by the United Nations. This year, 2015, WAY kicks off with its Fourth
Millennium Plan of Action (MPAC-4) and it addresses 10 goals that are vital to
youth.
In our world today, there are endless possibilities to what a person or a nation
can achieve, as sustainability is a great issue in many areas for development.
WAY recognises this fact and themed the Fourth Millennium Plan of Action as
“The Role of Youth on Sustainable Development”. This is with the realisation that
until sustainable actions are taken, real development would be far from reach.
We cannot settle for something we know that will not last. That is why a fight
for sustainability is crucial for this generation and others to come.
The youth play a very key role in our society. They are the future of the
community and the hope of a better tomorrow. There would be no other mind
to exert the knowledge and purpose of sustainability except that of the youth.
If the world thinks that it needs to be sustained and cared for, there is no other
resolution than to start working on getting the youth acquainted with the
understanding of what is at stake and the future we seek. They hold the key to
whether a better world would be the way we wish for or not.
Two of the best ways to achieve this is by getting the youth involved in the
solutions and craving for their opinions. Until the youth are involved in decision
making, they wouldn’t have that sense of belief that what they were taught
was meant something, and they would end up not acting on anything.
Creating a platform for youth is one thing, getting them involved in the
platform is another thing.
9. “In the service of youth since 1949” 5
Our world is getting ‘smaller’ each day; there would be differences and
discords along the way, but that should bring us closer to our strength, and
unified purpose. To talk about a sustainable development and the role of
youth, we should consider four main factors: ecological, economical, political,
and cultural factors.
WAY has taken it upon itself to dig deep into these matters and issues that
affect the youth. This time in particular, youth should get more involved to play
their roles on sustainable development of the world they desire and the future
they yearn for. We believe that when those youth issues are tackled, the youth
will be equipped to concentrate their potentials.
10. “In the service of youth since 1949” 6
BACKGROUND
One of the 10 (ten) goals set by WAY for the Fourth Millennium Plan of Action is
to Promote Peaceful and Inclusive Societies. About 1.5 billion people live in
countries affected by violent conflict, and the same amount of people live in
fragile and conflict-afflicted areas. A bomb blast to one neighbourhood is a
nightmare to another. When one youth is affected by violence, the whole
world is affected. We should fight for a sustainable resolution at all times.
This event, Youth Run for Peace and Sustainability, sought to engage youth
and youth leaders, at all levels, to stand in one accord to promote sustainable
peace. This is with the notion that conflict can rise anywhere at any time.
Therefore, we need to create awareness for the peace we seek, and the mind-
set of a peaceful ending.
Those that take the streets are not just runners or athletes, but they believe that
this road will lead to various good destinations. The ultimate destination, both
local and international, is a peaceful and inclusive society. Those that run for
peace and sustainability stand in the gap for the millions of youth that are
denied of their peaceful state, and thousands that are perishing each year as
a result of violence, and exclusive society.
We could all do more, but can start by taking the streets. RUN FOR PEACE, FOR
SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVE SOCIETY!
OBJECTIVES:
a. To promote peaceful and inclusive society in the minds of young people
and other generations;
b. To bring about an unified commitment towards the eradication of
dissonance;
c. To create an emancipated atmosphere for armistice declaration, and
sustainability;
d. To share time and resources with other peers.
