Young people play a crucial role in the prospect for development and should be
included in every National Development Plan for the achievement of the
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). But reality shows that attention to youth
has not been enough and more needs to be done to make sure that special
attention is given to young people, especially with regards to education,
employment and health. The signed Millennium Declaration by Governments
promising to “free men, women and children from the dehumanizing conditions of
extreme poverty”, committing developed and developing countries alike to eight
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) will need an integrated participatory
process from all sectors. In view of this the youth has a pivotal role to play in
community development to achieving the MDGs by 2015 but the question is: up
to which extent do young people actually take up community development
initiatives? Ernest is founder and Co- Director for YOUTH REALITIES NETWORKS (YOUR-NET)
