Chairperson - Commonwealth Youth Council | Ghanaian Youth Development Advocate
Accra, Ghana
Joined March 2011
Last month, I joined Youth Ministers, Senior Officials, and young people for the Asia Regional Youth Ministerial Meeting and the Inaugural session of the Commonwealth Asia Youth Alliance (CAYA), which took place from January 27 to 31 in Islamabad, Pakistan. On behalf of the Commonwealth Youth Council (@_cycofficial), I updated ministers and senior officials on our work at the CYC. I also reminded them of the Apia Youth Declaration, developed by young people across The Commonwealth at the 13th Commonwealth Youth Forum, and asked for swift action to implement the recommendations. I used the opportunity to thank the Asia region for their enormous support of the CYC over the years. The Asia Region has been a stronghold for the CYC since our establishment in Hambantota, Sri Lanka. The CYC has received incredible commitments from countries such as Pakistan, Malaysia, and Sri Lanka, and we look forward to even more support from other countries.
