A group of Anambra youths has held her first roundtable discussion ahead of the public presentation of her policy document dubbed “Youth Smart Pact with Soludo”.
The document encapsulates proposed youth programs and policies collated from the general public sometime last year and focuses on four (4) key areas which includes: Education, Employment/Empowerment, Political Participation and Social Orientation.
The 62 paged document provides detailed information on these key components. Most importantly, the pact further proposes funding sources that do not impose any strain on Government revenues. This is in line with the modus operandi of Prof. Chukwuma Soludo who continues to advocate for creative disruptions that enhance societal wellbeing, part of which is focusing on the how of things in crafting public policy documents.
The Roundtable had youth leaders from religious, voluntary and community based youth associations in attendance. Some of which include, ASATU Youth wing, Scout, Boys Brigade, CYON, AYF, YCP and AYM.
Speaking after the meeting, a youth leader and the converner of YESS Anambra, Dr. Nelson Omenugha stated that further consultations will continue with other relevant stakeholders before the eventual public signing and presentation of the document.
