In a move aimed at harnessing the potential of Ghana’s youth, Deputy Constituency Youth Organizer Bismark Tettey (BT) recently met with Madam Humu Kulsum, Director of the National Youth Authority (NYA) at the district level, to discuss youth opportunities. This meeting underscores the commitment of stakeholders to empower the next generation and equip them with the necessary skills to drive national development.
The NYA, established to provide a conducive environment for youth empowerment, focuses on young people’s participation in socio-economic and political development. The authority’s efforts align with the government’s vision to alleviate poverty among the youth through initiatives such as agriculture, education, and skills training.
During the meeting, BT and Madam Kulsum discussed ways to build the capacity of young people in governance, economic empowerment, and entrepreneurial development. The NYA’s strategic objectives include enhancing the overall development of young people, considered crucial to Ghana’s national development agenda.
This collaboration is expected to yield fruitful outcomes, including the identification of opportunities for youth engagement, skill development, and economic empowerment. By working together, BT and the NYA aim to create a brighter future for Ghana’s youth and equip them with the necessary tools to succeed.
The meeting also provided a platform for BT to share his vision for youth development in the constituency, highlighting the need for increased investment in education, skills training, and entrepreneurship programs. Madam Kulsum, in turn, shared her expertise and resources, offering to support BT’s initiatives and provide guidance on how to access funding and other opportunities.
As the NYA continues to work towards empowering the youth, its collaboration with stakeholders such as BT is vital. By investing in the next generation, Ghana can unlock its full potential and create a prosperous future for all. The meeting between BT and Madam Kulsum is a step in the right direction, demonstrating the commitment of stakeholders to empower the youth and drive national development.
The outcome of this meeting is expected to have a positive impact on the youth in the constituency, providing them with access to resources, opportunities, and support. As BT and the NYA continue to work together, they will be able to create a brighter future for Ghana’s youth, empowering them to become active citizens and contributors to national development.
