INTERNATIONAL YOUTH DAY (IYD) 2015
The 12th of August, every year has been set aside to commemorate the youth in the whole world. The 2015 International Youth Day will be commemorated under the theme; Youth Civic Engagement. Malawi, as a Nation, under the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development and stakeholders, will commemorate this day on a date to be communicated later at CIVO stadium in Lilongwe.
As part of the International Youth Day commemorations, the month of August has been specifically dedicated to volunteerism. NYCOM secretariat, acting on behalf of the Task Force that is organising commemorations and attendant activities for the AGA, is therefore encouraging all affiliates, the youth at large and other stakeholders to make a deliberate choice to take part in the volunteer work, as part of giving back to their respective communities. You may think of activities like cleaning the streets, hospitals and schools. Your participation will be greatly appreciated.
There will also be a public debate that will be held from 2:00pm to 3:00pm on Friday, August 14, 2015 at the Kamuzu Institute for Youth in Lilongwe. All youth and other stakeholders from Lilongwe City and beyond are invited to participate in this public debate and make their voice heard. The debate will be covered or reported by the media in various ways.
Please pass the message on to your other networks especially for organisations in the city of Lilongwe.
