This #InternationalYouthDay, I'm excited to make my debut as the new @UNAUSA Youth Observer to the @UN! I'm looking forward to engaging with @UMTownship, @NYUAlumni, @UNYouthAffairs and our youth members across the U.S. on issues that matter most to them 🇺🇳

Over the past year, I’ve traveled the country, met with youth in every corner, and brought their voices to the @un. My term may be ending, but the fight for a more just, inclusive, and sustainable world continues. Follow me at @OscarALopeziii to keep up with my work. 🇺🇳

In the fall, I spoke at a binational town hall that brought together members of the San Diego-Tijuana community. Here’s a thread on what I saw, and why it gives me hope. 🧵
