From 20th to 23rd of September 2019, 11 youth representatives from the 6 regions of IPPF gathered to write the Youth Manifesto of the Federation. We took this opportunity to discuss the preliminary report of the governance commission. Our recommendations to achieve a meaningful youth participation are the following :

  1. We support the quota of 1/3 young people on the Board of Trustees. We believe it should not be decided if the quota affects the Trustees from the membership or the externals. It needs to be flexible.
  2. We propose youth representation within the Nomination, Governance and Membership Committee in order to achieve a meaningful youth participation at every level of the Federation. It could be ensured by a youth quota.
  3. In addition to the regional assemblies, we need to organize regional youth forums in light of the Solution 3 of the IPPF Business Plan to strengthen the youth networks. It enables the participants of the regional youth forums to take part of the regional assemblies as well. We believe non-mixed spaces are needed for young people but meetings in diversity too.
  4. Members of the Board of Trustees have to participate to the regional youth forums and regional assemblies in order to stay in contact with the national and regional levels : listening to the needs of Member Associations, our challenges and ideas.
  5. The General Assembly has to be composed of the Executive Directors, the Presidents and the youth representatives with one vote per individual.
  6. In addition to the youth quota, we are calling your attention on making sure underserved and vulnerable groups are represented within IPPF governance.

    Dear IPPF Youth Representatives,

    Thank you for your valuable input, which will be taken into careful consideration as the Commission drafts the final report. The youth perspective is of utmost importance and we look forward to continuing this important conversation in India.

    As a matter of becoming a cost effective federation my proposal is that we do away with Regional Secretariat and Board. We can only have a Regional Assembly spearheaded by Central Office as the money the federation spends on salaries and wages, allowances and others at Regional level can be used to support to MAs in service delivery.
