About The Peace Corner Podcast

We’re making peace personal with the Peace Corner Podcast!

Young people are constantly working to build peace—whether in their communities or at global conferences—but their stories often go unheard. This podcast aims to demystify peacebuilding by bringing their voices to the forefront. With each episode,we introduce a different peacebuilder, a different region, a different story. So, put your headphones on and listen to the voices making peace possible.

Season 9 of the Peace Corner Podcast : YPS Turning 10 and Still Figuring it Out !

In the ninth season of the podcast, we are exploring peacebuilding in the context of the 10th anniversary of the UN’s Youth, Peace and Security (YPS) agenda, reflecting on its impact since the adoption of Resolution 2250 in 2015.

A decade ago, the YPS agenda sparked hope, recognizing young people’s vital role in peacebuilding.. In this season of the Peace Corner Podcast, we will unpack the challenges of the agenda while celebrating successes, and exploring the YPS through gender, climate change, protection, art, the role of young refugees in peacebuilding and more!

Join us as we hear from inspiring peacebuilders, uncovering the human stories behind the YPS agenda—their hopes, frustrations, and creative solutions for a more peaceful future. Tune in and be part of the conversation !

Episode 1: Why YPS?

In this 1st episode of the Peace Corner Podcast Season 9, our host Virginia Noacco and Assistant Secretary General for Youth Affairs Felipe Paullier reflected on the challenges which surrounded the creation of the Youth Peace and Security Agenda 10 years ago, its successes and three recommendations for the future centering prevention through meaningful inclusion of youth leadership in security discussions, holistic approaches and connections between the local and global level, and working to enable government’s accountability to their commitments.
