NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, December 21, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In a historic move for youth advocacy and Pan-African unity, Miles Henderson has been nominated to serve on the United Nations Permanent Forum for People of African Descent. This nomination underscores his lifelong commitment to promoting Black unity, cultural education, and systemic change.

Henderson, 30, founded True Culture University, a platform dedicated to educating people about African and African diasporic history, and the Pan-African Student Congress, which empowers youth to address advocacy issues. He is also the creator of PORTAL, an interactive platform designed to bridge gaps within the global African diaspora.

He plans to pursue a Doctorate in Peace and Security Studies with a focus on the Horn of Africa.

In addition to his entrepreneurial work, Henderson is dedicated to honoring Black history. As a member of the Marcus Garvey Bronze Coordinating Committee, he is leading efforts to install a statue of Marcus Garvey at the African Union Headquarters, symbolizing Pan-African unity.

The United Nations Permanent Forum for People of African Descent, established to address the unique challenges and opportunities facing African diaspora communities, aims to advance justice, human rights, and sustainable development. If selected, Henderson's appointment would mark a historic milestone for youth advocates, showcasing the importance of youth-driven solutions in shaping global policy.
