In 1999, the UN General Assembly marked August 12th as International Youth Day. It serves as an &#8216;opportunity to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/en\/observances\/youth-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">celebrate and mainstream<\/a> young people&#8217;s voices, actions and initiatives.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Each year, the United Nation of Youth create a theme for IYD. This year is: <strong><em>Youth Engagement for Global Action.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>This theme seeks to highlight how young people are engaging at local, national and global levels enrich themselves, institutions and processes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Youth Engagement to You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So, Youth Engagement for Global Action&#8230; what does this mean to you?<\/p>\n<p>As a young person myself, this statement is important. Allowing young voices and opinions to be heard is crucial to making changes at all levels.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst the world is stuck in a limbo-like situation, local, national and global action is needed to find new ways we can overcome this period. Change is needed now more than ever &#8211; having young voices at the forefront allows for fresh input into processes being made. Therefore ultimately paving the way for themselves and future generations.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, youth engagement to you may mean youth volunteering. This kind of engagement will be important to you and your organisation as it allows for fresh, new input. Giving your youth volunteers the chance to voice their opinions may help improve your future volunteering opportunities.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/volunteer-1-1024x687.jpg?fit=629%2C422&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6632\" width=\"486\" height=\"326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/volunteer-1-1024x687.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/volunteer-1-1024x687-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/volunteer-1-1024x687-768x515.jpg 768w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/volunteer-1-1024x687-900x604.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 486px) 100vw, 486px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Youth Statistics in Volunteering<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at some youth stats&#8230;<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-6652 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-7-e1597222244682-300x162.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-7-e1597222244682-300x162.png 300w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-7-e1597222244682-768x414.png 768w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-7-e1597222244682-900x485.png 900w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-7-e1597222244682.png 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/data.ncvo.org.uk\/volunteering\/demographics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">35% of 16-25 year olds<\/a> volunteer once a year with young women <a href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/2019\/07\/10\/women-volunteer-more-than-men\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">more likely to volunteer<\/a> than young men.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-6653 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-8-e1597223083542-248x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"183\" height=\"221\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-8-e1597223083542-248x300.png 248w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Untitled-design-8-e1597223083542.png 495w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 183px) 100vw, 183px\" \/>Education plays a vital part in getting young people to engage. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.careersandenterprise.co.uk\/sites\/default\/files\/uploaded\/careers_enterprise_what_works_report_young_people_volunteering.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">69%<\/a> of 10 &#8211; 20 year olds get involved with volunteering through their school, college or university.
