  1. “We have also set up a volunteer network at the national level and a youth volunteer programme within the Pacific Alliance. We would also like to highlight the recent establishment of an office on childhood in the Ministry for Social Development, dedicated to ensuring comprehensive protection. That measure, which gives continuity to work undertaken by the previous Government, will allow the State to have access to a dedicated institutional framework for coordinating public services directed at children. Experience shows that youth participation and inclusive development are paramount if we want to help to build a more peaceful, safe and just world for all.”

  2. “Critical infrastructure, such as hospitals and educational centres, must be protected in accordance with international law in times of peace and conflict. The well-being of young people and their positive inclusion in society will depend on it. At the regional level, in 2016, Chile adhered to the Ibero-American Youth Pact, which creates a political, economic and social alliance that promotes the integral development of young people in order to reverse the different forms of exclusion that may affect them. At the national level, our country has established the National Institute for Youth, a public body that proposes and promotes programmes for young people. In that regard, I would highlight grants for initiatives in the areas of human rights, equality, inclusion, integration and non-discrimination.”

  3. “Consistent with that policy, our country supports the initiatives and recommendations related to sustaining peace, such as including advisers on the protection of children and youth in peacekeeping missions and operations. We also recall the important role of the Arms Trade Treaty and subregional initiatives to combat the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons, as well as the implementation of resolution 2143 (2014), co-sponsored by Chile. The role of education in the future of our children and youth is indisputable. We must therefore contribute to promoting and protecting that right, even in conflict and post-conflict situations. Chile has joined the Safe Schools Declaration and urges an evaluation of the Lucens Guidelines in that regard.”

  4. “We highlight the synergies between resolution 1325 (2005) - and subsequent resolutions on the women and peace and security agenda - and resolution 2250 (2015), given the important role that young women play as agents of change and forgers of peace. In that regard, we urge the system to consider such synergies in the definition of its actions, as well as the link with the Vancouver Principles, which cover the situation of children in armed conflict. A few days ago, the Secretary-General pointed out that it is necessary to consider youth not as a threat, but as an enormous potential for our world, especially in our search for peace, development, justice and respect for human rights.”

  5. “It highlights the initiatives young people around the world have undertaken towards peace and urges Governments and international actors to recognize young people as the missing peace. That is in line with Sustainable Development Goal 16 of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which promotes peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, as well as Sustainable Development Goal 4, which, among its goals, recommends an inclusive and quality education for a culture of peace and non-violence with respect to human rights, gender equality and an appreciation of cultural diversity.”

  6. “Mrs. Bernal Prado (Chile) (spoke in Spanish): I thank Peru for convening this open debate, which gives us an opportunity to analyse the significant contribution young people make to efforts to maintain and promote peace and security, as well as the role they can play in conflict prevention and resolution. We appreciate the contributions made to this debate. In particular, we thank Mr. Graeme Simpson and his team for the independent progress study on youth, peace and security (see S/2018/86). Our country sponsored and participated in the drafting of resolution 2250 (2015), which was proposed by Jordan, during our membership in the Council in 2015. Chile values the recommendations made in the study.”
