Youth: Education and Aspirations

Empowering Women and Inspiring Youth: This is a Local Campaign for Political Engagement In a society that thrives on diversity and inclusivity, it is crucial to ensure that all voices are heard and represented in the political arena. Recognising the need for greater gender parity and youth involvement, a passionate individual has taken the initiative to launch a local campaign aimed at encouraging more women and young people to stand in local politics. The campaign, driven by a vision of a more inclusive and representative democracy, seeks to break down barriers and empower women to step forward as leaders in their communities. Moreover, the campaign recognises the immense potential and fresh perspectives that young people bring to the table. By inspiring and motivating them to engage in local politics, it aims to cultivate a new generation of leaders who are passionate. 

I am grateful for the opportunity, graciously facilitated by the local council, to secure two positions for our youth to engage in the practice of shadowing within the confines of the local council, thereby gaining a profound comprehension of the intricate workings of local politics. I have consistently advocated for the empowerment of women, and inspiring young people to become actively engaged in politics, and I am committed to continuing my efforts in this regard.
