Olga Tsaplina

Aspiring professional in youth-led development and sustainable urbanisation through healthy communities, a digital native eager to bring about innovation into everyday work. I believe in the immense potential of technology to address development issues and the role youth can play in introducing the change to local communities. My interests include whole-of-society approach(es) to SDG localisation, sustainable development with and by youth, post-Soviet cities, and children- and youth-friendly public spaces. Currently doing research on COVID-19 action led by youth, with the focus on vulnerable population groups and ‘opportunity youth’. Resourceful, passionate about and keen on getting young people’s voices heard, in and out of the multilateral system(s). If you feel that our priorities match, feel free to contact me.
