![12th August International Youth Day
Today is International Youth Day, and the theme for this year is Different Contexts, Common Aspirations. Our Youth Ambassadors bring a diverse range of experiences to the programme, but what they have in common is the desire to be a change maker in their communities, challenging gender inequality and its effects on society.
Why is youth engagement important?
· In a study of over 30 countries, Gen Z (ages 14-29, as of 2026) were more likely than older age generations to feel there is tension between men and women in society today. (IWD 2025 survey)
· Over a quarter (28%) of Gen Z men in the UK say a man who stays home to look after his children is less of a man (IWD 2025 Survey)
· 70% of teens see real-life violence on social media (Youth Endowment Fund [YEF], 2024)
· Evidence from UK studies involving children aged 13 to 17 and meta-analyses of international studies suggest that between 5 to 27% of children have received a ‘sext’ without consent (Youth Justice Board [YJB], 2026)
· In the UK, reported rates among 13 to 17 year olds vary between 4 to 19% for the non-consensual sharing of intimate images (Youth Justice Board [YJB], 2026)
· Girls are disproportionally affected by cyberbullying compared with boys (HBSC survey for England, 2021/22)
