  Co-created in 2017 by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Citi Foundation, Youth Co:Lab aims to establish a common agenda for countries in the Asia-Pacific region to impower and invest in youth, so that they can accelerate the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through leadership, social innovation and entrepreneurship. With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, face-to-face interactions have been restricted to prevent the spread of the virus. This, then, has pushed Youth Co:Lab to hold its activities and initiatives online. With that, there is a need to organize Youth Co:Lab’s youth directory so organizations can easily be tapped for partnerships and collaborations.
