The Hanoi Call for Action, held in November 2023, featured Malaysian Red Crescent representatives Michelle Chew Shi Jie (National Youth Chairperson) and Norsyarmimi Binti Che Lah (Kelantan Youth Chairperson). This event focused on amplifying youth engagement and participation in tackling humanitarian challenges, particularly disaster preparedness, within the Red Cross and Red Crescent (RCRC) Movement. It built on the vision of youth empowerment set forth at the Global Youth Forum in Geneva in 2019. 

The event’s key outcomes included the creation of a Youth Call for Action, integrated into the broader conference agenda. Additionally, it promoted intergenerational dialogue, enhancing collaboration between youth and senior leaders. The forum strengthened peer-to-peer networks, allowing youth from the Asia Pacific and Middle East regions to share innovative, community-based solutions for disaster readiness, positioning youth as key contributors to the future of the RCRC Movement.
