DESCRIPTION:oung people’s trust in government has halted in the MENA region
 : only 32% of young people expressed trust in their national government ac
 ross 12 countries in 2018.1 In the face of socio-economic challenges\, adm
 inistrative corruption and inadequate public services\, youth-led protests
  spread in numerous countries across the MENA region in 2019. The virtual 
 panel\, organised in partnership between MED and the MENA-OECD Governance 
 Programme\, will discuss how the COVID-19 crisis is affecting the future t
 rajectories of young people and governments in the MENA region. As highlig
 hted in the recent OECD policy paper “Youth and COVID-19: Response\, Recov
 ery and Resilience” (http://oe.cd/il/youth-covid19)\, the COVID-19 crisis 
 has further exacerbated the difficulties faced by young people particularl
 y in terms of education\, employment\, mental health\, disposable income\,
  and individual freedoms. At the same time\, youth-led organisations have 
 provided considerable help in mitigating the immediate impact of the crisi
 s\, also demonstrating intergenerational solidarity. The MENA region remai
 ns particularly exposed to the risks that the COVID-19 crisis is posing fo
 r young people and future generations due to pre-existing high levels of y
 outh unemployment\, high levels of youth employment in the informal sector
 \, challenges in access to education\, and large numbers of displaced youn
 g people\, among others. However\, this historic crisis offers governments
  across the MENA region the opportunity to reform their socio-economic sys
 tem\, governance arrangements and legal frameworks to build back better so
 cieties and economies that leave no one behind.\nWelcome Remarks\nPaolo Ma
