The pursuit of fair and equal representation is an international fight, catapulted in complication by the multifaceted nature of attaining electoral equality through international mechanisms. That's why the Centre is committed to working with global entities to ensure the construction of international dialogue pertaining to youth leaders.
The Centre works with multiple international mechanisms to convey dialogue, conduct research, and bring awareness to the thematic issues of electoral engagement around the world. We closely follow and participate in the United Nations human rights mechanisms in Geneva and abroad, such as the UN Human Rights Committee.
​
Our human rights reporting process includes preliminary research of nation-states to be reviewed in the next session of the respective U.N. human rights body, researching and coordinating with civil society members of the respective nation to create a report on the successes and limitations of that nation implementing youth civic engagement, then working on-the-ground in Geneva to network with and speak to leaders from these nation-states on the issues we see.
​
These mechanisms have been used by the Centre since 2023, and have allowed for U.N. mandates to be issued to states for improving the engagement of youth in government, electoral equality, and more.
