Youth participation in global governance requires immediate strengthening according to Uganda's Minister of State for Youth and Children Affairs. Balaam Barugahara addressed delegates at the United Nations during commemorations marking three decades of the World Programme of Action for Youth. Uganda demonstrates commitment through its National Youth Council framework that expands representation across government levels. The minister advocates for enhanced investment in youth structures nationwide.
Digital technology creates barriers between age groups while reducing personal contact between people. Barugahara warns against excessive reliance on electronic devices that limits knowledge transfer from older to younger generations. Developing nations must prioritize fair trade partnerships over traditional aid dependency models. Creative industries offer the fastest employment growth potential for young workers seeking economic opportunities through value-added production methods.
