Message for Youth Day: A Call to Accelerate Youth Development Through Improved Socio-Economic and Socio-Cultural Standards

Zambia celebrates Youth Day (2023) under the theme ‘Transforming Minds for Accelerated Youth Development’. With a little over a year of UPND’s government being in office, this year’s celebrations come at a time when the nation needs to assess the government's commitment to fulfilling the election promises made to the youths. Young people turned out in large numbers to vote for UPND on the backdrop of promises for job creation, youth economic empowerment, youth inclusion in the governance of the country, equal education opportunities and enforcement of the rule of law.
