MINUSMA also invites Malian youth organizations as keynote speakers to the annual open days on Women, Peace, and Security, in order to provide women and youth organizations the ability to share their peacebuilding experiences with the Government, MINUSMA, and each other. Some of these organizations or associations specifically represent the interests of young women.</li> <li>Meaningful participation of young people in security sector reform is central to the building of inclusive, effective and accountable security institutions. In Mali, MINUSMA advanced the inclusion of young people in security sector reform efforts by supporting the establishment of a youth forum . The “Platform for Youth Engagement in SSR and DDR” mobilizes and engages hundreds of young people in the implementation of the peace agreement as well as in the countering and prevention of violent extremism. </li> <li><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230718022852/https://www.mineaction.org/en">UNMAS</a> supports the implementation of community micro-projects contributing to stabilization in support of mine action activities such as explosive ordnance risk education and victim assistance. From July 2019 to June 2020, 22 communities in central and northern Mali were supported by UNMAS with the implementation of micro-projects with over 130 youth involved.</li> </ul><h5> </h5> <h5>UNMISS</h5> <ul><li>In 2018, UNMISS created the first juvenile reformatory centre in Juba, South Sudan.

Through the programme, 24 young persons from across the island, ages 18-29, were selected to undertake a challenging training programme for which the mission supported their own environmental campaigns on the island. The goal of the programme was youth empowerment and peacebuilding, given the universality of the environmental challenges faced not only on the island but also in the region.

Congo. In March 2020, MONUSCO ensured the representation of 12 members (seven women and five men) of the “Programme d’Aide Communautaire pour la Jeunesse (PAC-J)” in community consultations in the five territories of the Kasai Province. PAC-J members consulted young people, registered their needs, and encouraged them to participate in the peace process. Consequently, 40 young people, including 24 women, were represented in the peace process and in decision-making through the signing of the Acts of Commitments in the five territories of the Kasai province, while 41 youths, 20 of them young women, were integrated into the Intercommunity Platform for Permanent and Inclusive Dialogue (BUPOLE), locally set up to prevent, manage and resolve conflicts in the Kasai province. </li> </ul><h5> </h5> <h5>UNMIK</h5> <ul><li>In Kosovo, a project by the Justice and Corrections Service (JCS) of UNMIK aimed to reduce the backlog of cases before the Basic Court of Mitrovica through internship opportunities for young lawyers from different communities. The project contributed to the reduction of more than 3,500 backlog cases, and enabled young lawyers to acquire practical experience on legal aid matters.</li> </ul><h5> </h5> <h5>MINUSCA</h5> <ul><li>In the Central African Republic, the <a href="//web.archive.org/web/20230718022852/https://peacekeeping.un.org/en/disarmament-demobilization-and-reintegration">Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration Section (DDRS)</a> supports the establishment of a Local Committee in each of the target locations where MINUSCA’s Community Violence Reduction (CVR) activities take place. Local Committees are comprised of representatives of local authorities, women's and youth associations, religious leaders, customary chiefs, as well as representatives of armed groups. Local Committees, in particularly youth, play a key role in the selection of programme beneficiaries, in the identification of viable community projects, as well as in the monitoring of projects implementation. Representatives of youth associations contribute to the identification of beneficiaries and explain the CVR programme to motivate young people to renounce violence and strengthen social cohesion and peaceful coexistence. Representatives of youth associations also play a role in the identification of socio-economic reinsertion opportunities tailored to the aspirations of young people and in consideration of the local labour market’s employment opportunities.</li> <li>In line with its mandate, MINUSCA continued to support the government to implement a CVR programme to complement disarmament, demobilization and reintegration (DDR) efforts. MINUSCA expanded its implementation to eight locations, in partnership with IOM and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230718022852/https://www.unops.org/">UNOPS</a>. As part of the programme, the beneficiaries are combatants non-eligible for DDR, as well as youth at risk and other community members. The CVR projects focus on participants between 18 and 35 years of age, reflecting the definition of “youth” in Central African Republic. CVR activities also support a quota of a minimum of 20% women participants per location.</li> <li>CVR activities have offered economic opportunities for youth, preventing recruitment from armed groups. Since January 2016, more than 22,000 beneficiaries in nine priority locations across the country have been supported.</li> <li>In September 2019 in Bangui, MINUSCA organized training sessions with the National Youth Council and provided logistical and financial support for the Council members to travel to Bria and Birao in order to establish prefectural youth focal points. The Mission also held capacity-building workshops with 90 religious leaders and provided logistical support to ensure the participation of young people from Sibut, Mabiki, Bambari, Kembi, Kaga-Bandoro, and Berberati.</li> </ul><h5><div class="media media-element-container media-default"><div id="file-26903--3" class="file file-image file-image-jpeg"> <h2 class="element-invisible"><a href="//web.archive.org/web/20230718022852/https://peacekeeping.un.org/en/file/19jpg-0">19.jpg</a></h2> <div class="content"> <img alt="During a security patrol in Bangui, Central African Republic, two United Nations Police peacekeepers discuss safety and security with local youth.

This approach is designed to build leadership skills and strengthen cultural identity through support to a network of institutions in the Tindouf refugee camps, such as the Sahrawi cultural museum, art schools (music, film and fine arts), and youth centres.
