“With rallies, hackathons and guerrilla stunts – International Youth Day has got off to an eventful start as young people highlight the campaigns and movements that have shaped the past year. Some 100,000 young activists are expected to take part in more than 100 events this week to mark the UN annual celebration on 12 August.
