Information on activities at the national or international levels
SERAC-Bangladesh has been actively working in sustainable development and youth issues for more than 2 decades in Bangladesh. With a long experience on international dialogues, ICPD, UN General Assembly and national level projects delivering health and well being of young people. We believe that with a diversity of experiences, SERAC-Bangladesh can play a very active role in representing the emerging youth generation in Bangladesh at ECOSOC bodies. Further, with a large volunteer corps, SERAC is confident to communicate issues sent out from ECOSOC and its bodies to the grassroots. Again SERAC can mainstream the ECOSOC events and programs into its ongoing activities.
As the post-2015 dialogue is on, SERAC-Bangladesh with its grant project by IPPF, will engage young key populations affected by HIV/AIDS to foster the aim of UN ton ensure a meaningful participation of youth at all levels. Again we will incorporate any issues by ECOSOC aligned with our global campaigns like Action/2015 Bangladesh or gender equality movements.
