Hi this is Loren Reyes, a wellness advocate and am glad to be joining you all in this beautiful and amazing community space filled with wonderful people all helping co create the better possible for all! Am a social worker and a regenerative design thinker, helping advance the cause of young people and women across generations. It is in our core values to find meaningful journey in creative collaboration where advocacy matters and when we stand altogether in a more holistic approach from the ground up, great things happen in cocreating a more sustainable future.
At the end of the day, it is not about us individually or the needs of any organization but in collectively caring and giving back something to the global community that really matters and puts everyone in a much higher plane with a significant shift in perspective much bigger than us. We're launching our 2023 Community of Practice volunteer initiative WORK NURTURING INNOVATION so we hope to get onboard like-minded individuals in the COP platform of action that prioritizes people's well-being (human-centered design), earth caring (planet) and fair share for all (purpose). Today's challenges confronting the global community and each country is a Call to Action and needs a regenerative and proactive response from diverse actors so we came up with an initiative to do a bit of good in our own little way so as to start the journey of planting regenerative seeds to grow potentials and add value where it can matter.
Kindly check the link for your information and guidance. All prerecorded video messages and advocacy materials via google drive with event links can be shared at the events' eCollaboration space as follows:
Consolidated Inputs in the Event Scheduling of Agencies/ Academe/ Organizations/ Media Partners
WNI INNOVATING INCLUSION FOR IMPACT PROJECT PILOT TEST:
This is just on overview, I have yet to include other slides. The stakeholders who are collaborating in our platform of action are from health agencies, educational institutions, industry partners, environmental advocates, legal sector, policy makers, designers, young changemakers.
We can make this as our common platform of action on outreach support especially for transdisciplinary research team working for more inclusive communities across the globe to advance the cause of young population and those with disabilities. Not everyone can access programs and services, hence the program can help with its fill in the gaps programme leaving no one behind. We hope to co organize our event with Decent Jobs for Youth and to plan ahead the relevant activities which can be supported with relevant resource speakers and relevant agencies/network organizations we can tapped through Youthforesight platform. Part of our discussion points will tackle the 8 SDGs: 2,3,4,6,10, 12, 13, 16. It is best that proper authorities can facilitate this kind of discussion with multistakeholder engagement in relation to the 2030 agenda.
This is a relevant time to solidify efforts and altogether work towards a just society for an Inclusive and Regenerative Future ahead of us. Please share what you think on the initiative to co create the future we all want to have for the generations to come.

Before fully finalizing our commitment with the Decent Jobs for Youth, we hope to get the feedbacks from Youthforesight engaged stakeholders. We wish to seek advocacy and facilitation partnership especially on the SDGs and to pilot test our project which was a result of the work at the level of communities since 2018. If we can co organize the event on specially designed topics and launch the project pilot test with transdicisciplinary team from the global network part on board that would be amazing. I just viewed the link shared on the topic "A Journey towards Decent Work for and with Youth in Digital Economy" and we find our alignment to the advocacy efforts of the speakers. We hope to establish working partnership with them to fast track all inclusion efforts on the ground with the event launching and project pilot test. Another spark of an idea is to possibly invite a representative from the USAID to explore and experience the unfolding of the event being done in a whole society approach. We hope you can help us also find a collaborating funding partner agency just to give the program an initial boost so later it can fully take its operation independently in later years Thank you and looking forward to hear your inputs.
