The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), launched by the United Nations in 2016 with a mission to carry forward the global development agenda till 2030 and beyond, emphasize actions for and involvement of younger generations. Because these groups will see through and can suitably contribute to the envisaged sustainable prospects. This set of 17 interconnected goals with their 169 targets is designed in such a way that youths remain their main stakeholder groups. The fact being young people create the biggest part of the global demography. Now, 43% of the world’s population is of people under the age of twenty-five. And, around 90% of them live in poor and developing countries that are stuffed with threats to sustainable development. This part of population will obviously live longer, that too with the impact of the decisions and actions taken at present. Participating in the development agenda is the “right” of the young generation as they have greater stake in long-term sustainability. Ignoring the issues and role of the youth in the process of dealing with the issues of sustainability can be a risk. Rather, it should be turned into an opportunity by making them serious partners in the Sustainable Development Goals. And, to realize this opportunity youths should be equipped with skills the modern day requires.
