Did we told you that we are conducting a climate change
petition to the COP15 Summit,we had different options of ensuring that the
petition was delivered which was either giving it to our Ugandan delegation
or sending it by mail. Much as both the two alternatives could work, we
realised it could be much better if we are to hand the petition over we
should as well use this opportunity to recruit as many young people as
possible and this could be achieved if we became an example to them by
bringing them together and organising something perticipative in nature.
Thus i believe if we can organise a small function to hand over our petition
coupled with presentations of drama,poems and all sorts of edutainament
events plus a match and planting trees could help since personal participation could help in changing negative perceptions to building an
army of young people capable to spread the struggle. I am sorry to tell you this but in our country the youths have no place in determining what they
want their future to be,it only takes the determined few to do things like
these which majority youths opt for politics. How is it in your country?
