Inclusive, diverse, intercultural and meaningful participation of young people
Commitment description:By 2020, Bolivia is developing spaces and mechanisms for the meaningful and inclusive participation of young people in the development and implementation of public policies in the areas of health and education, related to their sexual and reproductive health and rights, while building indicators for monitoring and follow-up and for allocating them a sufficient budget. These spaces and mechanisms should involve local and regional governments, youth organizations and networks, non-governmental organizations, and the public and private sectors, among others, ensuring the participation of people with diverse genders and sexual orientations, women and indigenous peoples, and responding to the principles of non-discrimination, interculturality, secularism, co-responsibility, cooperation and coordination. Only in this way will it be possible to build healthy, enjoyable and happy futures for young people.
