Abstract

Religious pluralism is a constructive attitude, not only theological normative awareness but also social awareness, where we live in a pluralistic society in terms of religion, culture, ethnicity, and various other social diversity. In addition, religious pluralism must also be understood as a true affinity for diversity. Religious pluralism is a concept that has a broad meaning, is related to the acceptance of various religions, and is used in different ways. Pluralism aims to deconstruct absolutism, asserting relativism and underlying tolerance for differences, heterogeneity, and pluralism not only as facts that must be recognized but pluralism is seen and treated as a form of positivism, not negativism. Besides religious pluralism is also used as a unifying tool and glue for a country, both from the lower, middle and upper classes. In addition, a pluralist who promotes pluralism through pluralism must acknowledge and defend these differences, pluralism, and heterogeneity to be used as useful things. But in fact until now in the midst of society, there are still different perceptions in interpreting plurality and the term pluralism, understanding multicultural meaning based on sharia, not just mere personal perception.

Abstract

The inclusion of youth in government decision-making processes is an increasingly prevalent trend within the context of global governance. The world’s population has more than 1.8 billion youths aged between 15 and 30 and therefore their integration into policy frameworks and decision-making processes is essential for achieving sustainable development goal, peace creation, and advancement of technologies. The youth are the key agent of change who are proficient in technology, optimistic about the future, and determined as they always seek to change. Unfortunately, they are on the other hand subjected to and required to endure in the face of tokenistic representation, disillusionment and institutions resistant to change. This paper seeks to evaluate the global governance youth participation by looking at the existing frameworks, examples of best practices, and the most systemic challenges that are preventing full integration of youth in global governance. Specifically, the findings show how emerging youth policies such as the African Union Youth Charter and the Commonwealth Youth Council, as well as youth-led social movements (e.g., Fridays for Future), are already influencing international policies. It also highlights the importance of significant institutional reforms as well as the infusion of consistent and sustainable investment to enhance the youth participation in global governance. This paper starts with practical policy recommendations such as capacity building and strengthening measures and recruitment case studies of inclusion of youth in governance. All in all, youth should be prepared with an active role in making the decisions that shape their future through strengthening measures through financial independence and meaningful educational reforms.
