serious concerns<\/a> that young people are often included only in name and are hardly allowed to participate meaningfully in the formulation of agendas and policies that stand to affect their future. Here is a photo essay that examines how the UN believes young people could shape policies that relate to gender and sexual and reproductive rights, participating in everything from policy making to parliamentary processes to refugee camps\u00a0and, well, the kitchen. Will it amount to more than interesting photo essays? The Post-2015 agenda and its targets will tell.<\/p>\nPic Source\/Credit:<\/p>\n
