Happy International Youth Day to you all — my children, nieces and nephews, sisters and brothers, and my beloved, talented, and dynamic young Ghanaians.
Thank you for the honour. I am excited to have the opportunity to launch the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Youth Manifesto before you today, August 12th.
As you have heard from the various presentations, the NDC Youth Manifesto is the blueprint for our commitment to empowering the youth of Ghana and unlocking your potential for sustainable development.
This year's international theme is “From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development”.
The theme perfectly underscores the transformative power of digital technologies in driving progress and shaping the future.
As we celebrate young people's contributions to leveraging digital tools for positive change, I am proud to reaffirm our pledge—the Mahama and Naana Jane administration’s pledge - to upscale digital skills and training for Ghanaian youth. We envision a future where every young Ghanaian has the opportunity to thrive in the digital age.
We are commissioned to supporting digital start-ups and incubation on hubs and training one million young Ghanaians in coding.
