The OGP Youth Toolkit 2.0 was developed by the OGP Support Unit, in collaboration with the OGP Youth Collective and partners. This Toolkit exists because of the generosity, expertise, and lived experience of youth practitioners across the OGP community, who shared their stories, tools, and hard-won lessons. The OGP Support Unit is deeply grateful to each of them.
