     Young people are the future of the country and the world. As United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has pointed out, "meaningful, diverse and effective youth engagement is essential to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals." Taking concrete actions to advance global development initiatives and help implement the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, young people should not be absent and have a lot to do.

     In the new era, the young people of China have joined hands with the young people of other countries to enhance mutual understanding, gain friendship and grow together through mutual learning, and contribute their youthful strength to the building of a community with a shared future for mankind. Chinese young people are actively engaged in the Belt and Road Initiative, and hundreds of thousands of young employees of Chinese-funded institutions are working hard in foreign countries, contributing to local economic and social development. International volunteer Chinese language teachers, mainly young people, have served in more than 100 countries to help young people learn Chinese culture. At the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, Chinese young athletes and volunteers spread warmth with smiles, friendship with hugs, and strength with hearts. With their actions, the Chinese youth have proved to the world that as long as people of all countries work together in the same direction, the future of the community with a shared future for mankind will be even brighter.

     At present, the century-old changes in the world and the COVID-19 pandemic are intertwined. Various security challenges keep emerging, world economic recovery is struggling, and global development is facing serious setbacks. Peace or war, light or darkness, mankind faces an important choice at the crossroads of progress and regression. Even so, we can still see: Geng Xueshan from China Construction 8th Engineering Bureau went to Tajikistan, 5,000 kilometers away, to devote himself to the construction of landmark buildings along the "Belt and Road"; Liu Jichen, a young Chinese who developed the "CD-Clocking" App, offers Chinese wisdom and solutions to global food security issues; Lefteris Arapakis, a young Greek entrepreneur, launched the Clean Mediterranean Project. While launching a large-scale clean-up of Marine garbage by fishermen, the collected waste will be recycled and reused to make ecological protection more efficient and sustainable. Kuldeep Aryal, a Nepali man, is working to bring "energy equality" to women in rural Nepal. Together with his team, he has installed solar power equipment, light bulbs, etc., to bring the light of technology to more vulnerable groups... Facts have proved that this generation of young people have ideas, hard work and resilience. They are thinking deeply about the future of the country and the world. They also hope to participate deeply in global governance and contribute their youthful wisdom and strength to the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.

     The voice of young people is valued and listened to, and the huge potential of young people is fully revealed. From the perspective of youth, they explain the common values of mankind, such as peace and development, equity and justice, democracy and freedom. These are not just abstract concepts, but are reflected in their acute perception of climate change and practical suggestions for rural education. It is a vivid portrayal of these young people's struggle to fulfill their ideals with their steps and promote global development with the concept of unity of knowledge and action.

     We value, rely on and achieve youth. Young people have an active mind and broad vision. They often come up with creative new ideas and new ideas. As Jayatma Wickramanayake, the UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy for Youth, said in her address: "There are 1.8 billion young people on the planet today, and if we can recognize their value and give them the space to realize their potential, this will open up extraordinary opportunities."
