A typical post picks up 24 interactions against 100K followers, an engagement rate of 0.024%. Measured over 47 original posts, its engagement rate beats 30% of 3,829 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 835 times each, and 2.87% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.839% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 20% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 47 posts sampled, 96% carry an image or video, 6% are part of a thread and 11% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 203 interactions, about 8.5x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #aycat20, #agenda2063, #thecharterwewant.

Compared with accounts its own size

African Union Youth Program's engagement rate beats 30% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,829 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 73% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.024%, African Union Youth Program sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,071 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.012% to 0.08%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,071 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 105,527 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

    🌍 From Addis Ababa to Bujumbura: three days of moving youth voices closer to the decisions that shape peace, security and governance in Africa. 🕊️ Day 1 put implementation at the center: from the handover of youth recommendations emerging from Addis Ababa to discussions on #YPS, #WPS, water governance, AI, and the role of the next generation of African peacebuilders. 📜 Day 2 went deeper. Four parallel sessions explored practical pathways for change, while the African Youth Charter @ 20 discussions asked whether 20 years of commitments are truly reflected in young people’s lives. The plenary brought forward recommendations for stronger youth representation, inclusive YPS implementation, economic opportunities and more responsive institutions. 💪 Day 3, International Youth Day, connected policy with action. From youth skills at CEFORE-RUSI to 10 community-led initiatives showcased during #InkerebutsiDay, young people demonstrated that they are not only the leaders of tomorrow. They are already building peace and development today. 👉 The message from Bujumbura is clear: youth participation must go beyond consultation. Young people need meaningful space to influence policy, implementation and accountability. From consultation ➡️ influence. From commitments ➡️ action. From youth voices ➡️ youth power. @AUEUYouthLab #AUEUYouthLab #AUEUYouthVoicesLab #PoweroftheCollective #AUEU #EngageEmpowerConnect#EuropeAid #Bujumbura2026 #YPS #WPS #TheCharterWeWant #AYCat20

What is African Union Youth Program's engagement rate on X?
African Union Youth Program (@AUYouthProgram) has an engagement rate of 0.024%, based on the median interactions across 47 original posts from the last 30 days against 99,504 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.024%, African Union Youth Program sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,071 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @AUYouthProgram have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 30% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,829 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @AUYouthProgram post?
Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.73 posts per day across the measured window.
