The two-day Reflective Seminar on Youth, Peace and Security National Action Plans (YPS NAPs) was convened by ACCORD, through the Training for Peace in Africa (TFP) Programme, in partnership with the African Union Commission’s Political Affairs, Peace and Security Department (AUC PAPS) and the COMESA Governance, Peace and Security Programme (COMESA GPS) on 18–19 November 2024 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
In commemoration of 10 years of UNSCR 2250 and five years of the AU Continental Framework on Youth, Peace and Security (CFYPS), the seminar brought together youth peacebuilders, African Union Youth Ambassadors for Peace (AYAPs), policymakers and practitioners from across the continent to reflect on progress, identify persistent gaps and strengthen pathways for advancing YPS NAPs in Africa.
