Knowledge Creation
One of our key priorities is the creation and dissemination of evidence-based knowledge on Youth, Peace and Security. We support and encourage our members to contribute to peer-reviewed journals, books, and in other fora to raise awareness on the YPS agenda and gain credibility as the experts they are in the space.
