Backdround Info

Following the upsurge of violence and criminal behavior in the Niger Delta, it has become common knowledge that young people in this area are prone to violence. By extension, they are no-do-wells and as such cannot play meaningful role in the sustainable development of the region. Contrary to this school of thought ,there are lots of young people in this part of the country that are leading change both at the local, national and international scene.

The purpose of this SUMMIT is to create a far reaching awareness of the potentials of young people as key players in the growth and development of Delta State and to advocate for youth inclusion in governance. By so doing, the state is indirectly creating a new generation of leaders who will strategically position the state in the scheme of things.

A nation or community that does not have a concrete youth empowerment strategies is headed for disaster. However, until today’s leaders realize the potentials of young people as change agents; they may not pay urgent attention to youth inclusion and empowerment as a tool for sustainable development.

The upcoming event will also create a platform for young Deltans at home and in Diaspora to network, share ideas, opportunities and best practices that will move that state forward. Here we can synergize and collaborate to run change projects for the sustainable development of the state.
