On this year’s Day of Peace, held on September 20, young people from around the world have been invited to take part in a ceremony at UN headquarters in New York, to talk about the ways that they are contributing to peacebuilding.

The events took place the day before the UN Youth Summit, where young leaders will showcase climate solutions, and engage with global leaders on the defining issues of our time.

On Friday, Conor Lennon from UN News went to meet with two of the youth delegates, who have found very different ways to raise awareness of peace and climate change.
