who we are
ILC Youth is a global network connecting young people and youth-led organisations working for secure land and territorial rights and meaningful participation in land governance.
The constituency includes eight youth-led ILC people’s organisations, while the wider network brings together young members, youth groups and youth representatives from ILC organisations across the regions.
Created following the first Global Land Forum Youth (2022), the network connects these actors to build a collective voice, strengthen young people’s leadership and advance common priorities in national, regional and global spaces.
our shared vision
The work of the ILC Youth Network is grounded in priorities developed by young people themselves. The 2022 Ajloun Declaration helped establish the common direction of the network, and the Global Youth Agenda 2025–2028, developed through regional and global consultations and adopted at the second Global Land Forum Youth in Ocaña, now provides the main framework for collective action.
