Empower youth to govern themselves


OF THE many efforts that can be made to educate the youth on political participation, the best approach is to empower youth for "self-government".

This starts with students/youth voting for their leaders in various institutions/levels related to them. This can be followed by the representation of the selected students/youth to become leadership partners with the main leadership of the various institutions/levels, namely involvement in the structure and decision-making process.
