February 2-3 marked the ECOSOC Youth Forum at the UN, an event intended to focus attention on the role of youth in the Sustainable Development Goals. Students braved the cold weather to hear lectures and participate in discussions with people from all over the world. A few pictures from our talented undergraduates in attendance tell the story of their trip.

Look for more personal reflections by Diplomacy students on their experiences as the ECOSOC Youth Forum in the coming weeks!
