Support Youth!
Each year on August 12, we observe International Youth Day (IYD). On this day, we celebrate youth across the globe to honor the promising future in today’s society. In addition, the day also brings worldwide awareness to issues youth face in their lives on a daily basis.
One of the main goals of IYD is to teach youth how to make a better life for themselves. Beginning with empowerment, youth learn to have become involved in society. Teaching youth how to deal with social injustice and promote peace ensure future generations will make the world a better place.
Engaging in social development with youth in your area is one way to show support for IYD. By acknowledging youth groups, you are showing support and offering encouragement for youth to share ideas and solutions to problems of today and the future.
“The youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow.”
- Nelson Mandela
