How does your philanthropy connect to change across the world? How does the change you are making tie to bigger work of others? The Youth Philanthropy Forum aims to build greater capacity and create a better environment for youth philanthropic organizations to support the implementation of the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs).  Connect your youth philanthropy to the United Nations' SDGs to see how you are making change towards these big goals.  Learn and make connections with international leaders by building strong partnerships between youth philanthropic organizations, the United Nations, governments, civil society, and businesses.  The workshop is divided into multiple segments to engage with the 17 areas of SDGs and the means of involvement in implementation, reporting and monitoring.
