International Youth Day: Youths Urged to Champion Peace and Unity Across Africa

He said Africa’s future depends on young people using their ideas, skills and innovation to tackle shared challenges, including poverty, unemployment, climate change and unequal access to digital opportunities. He also called for stronger collaboration among African youths, rejecting xenophobia and economic exclusion while drawing on Pan-African ideals and the spirit of Ubuntu.
