The document proposes establishing the Youth Unity Peace Forum of Eastern Ethiopia to promote unity, peace and development among youth in the region. It would do this through activities like public forums that allow youth to discuss issues and ways to achieve regional unity. The forum aims to minimize conflicts, promote human rights and empower youth and women. It would focus on educating youth about valuing other ethnic groups and religions to foster understanding between different communities.

There is no simple way to solving the African youth question. This book seeks to make a simple but no ordinary call on all stakeholders to take steps and help solve the youth question across the continent. This is a call, which does not require guns and machetes, but intellectual and moral weapons without which lasting results can never be secured. One other important issue worth mentioning, if even in passing, is the slur of ghettoes. Ghettoes have been known to provide safe havens for criminals and traps for the vulnerable youth especially the homeless, poverty stricken and those from hot spots. Ghettoes do not only provide fertile grounds for criminals, they also provide them with the opportunity to recruit vulnerable youth to their fold. There is no doubt that, policies have no legs to walk on into reality. The traditional track for their movement into reality is through programmes deliberately designed and religiously adhered to. On the other hand, institutions implement programmes. Thus the stronger, effective and resourceful an institution is, the better the programmes are implemented and consequently the effectiveness of the policy in the lives of the intended target. The media, with its reach, the ability to set agenda, and its 'god' status in the eyes of society should attempt to educate the youth on family values to the society. Debates could be generated on the essence of the family unit among others to psyche society up by highlighting the inherent beauty of the family system. The time has come for chieftaincy institution, to reassert its traditional duties to the youth and society. This is a call for grassroot education where chiefs and sub-chiefs would engage their societies in meaningful 'Nim-tree' and Baobab-tree discussions to establish codes and reinstate the position of the family in the society and more importantly to the youth. Two critical programmes, which could provide substantive and long-term opportunities to the youth, should centre on Incubation Centres and National Employment Programme. Traditionally, incubation centres give office space and technical advice in the early years of start-ups with the capacity, by design, to support any area of entrepreneurial direction government policies indicates. The high level of expertise required to successfully manage a business, coupled with the cost of rent, makes it necessary for the government, either singularly or in partnership, to support the culture of the business incubation centres. These incubation centres should be established with the core goal of providing the necessary technical support and protection for young entrepreneurs during the critical early stages of their businesses. As a matter of national priority, African leaders need to build and empower youth entrepreneurs. The issue of job centres with an online option would enhance the job search and security of the youth. That is to say, the government should establish job centres on campuses....

Consultations with young people and solution providers on education, skills ,...Shravan Shetty
YuWaah! aims to enable sustained and coordinated investments to co-create solutions for learning (including alternative and flexible learning programmes), life and employability skills, career guidance and employment opportunities (including entrepreneurship). The target of the partnership is on adolescents and young people in school (25 million), out of school (20 million) and in institutions (4 million).
“What we need is to unleash the entrepreneurial spirit in India, especially encourage women entrepreneurs. Gender parity is essential for our growth” We will be supporting 500 innovation labs in the next three years, unleashing the entrepreneurial spirit of India”, said NITI Aayog CEO, Amitabh Kant.
The current workforce in India is 480 million, of whom 93 per cent (446 million) are employed in small, informal-sector enterprises. More than 60 per cent (288 million) are employed in rural India. In addition, 90 per cent of India’s workforce has received no formal skills training. In the next twenty years, India’s current population of 444 million children will enter the working age. India will have a huge task to equip these adolescents with marketable skills.
YuWaah! aims to support this massive exercise by bringing together key stakeholders to recognize, design and implement solutions to expand employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for education, skills, decent jobs and sustainable livelihoods – that are accessible to all.
“Despite significant progress for children in their first decade of life — through reduced child mortality and increased access to primary school — tens of millions of adolescents in India are not getting the support that they need through their second decade of life. And this is especially true for girls, migrants, children with disabilities, and those belonging to historically disadvantaged communities,” said Ms Fore during her interaction with young people at the consultation.
In addition to this, Ms Fore also recognized three big opportunities in India: scaling-up flexible education options; expanding social-protection programmes; and supporting young people supporting other young people.
Over 60 adolescents and young people from various parts of India, including from the most marginalized groups Dr. K.P Krishnan, Secretary, Skill Development and Entrepreneurship; Ms Rina Ray, Secretary, School Education and Literacy; Dr. Amarendra Kumar Dubey, Secretary, Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, along with representatives from the private sector, UN agencies and civil society organizations were present at the occasion.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Youth Unity Peace Forum goal is to foster a commitment to young people that will promote
pro-social friendships, strong interpersonal skills, and reassert a sense of hope in the future.
In Brief
Unite for Youth is a non-profit agency providing mentoring programs for middle and high
school youth in the Greater Claremont area. The program will form partnerships with local
school districts and the juvenile court system. Unite for Youth’s goal is to foster a
commitment to young people that will promote pro-social friendships, strong interpersonal
skills, and reassert a sense of hope in the future. Only through personal relationships can a
sense of individual responsibility be re-established that will give youth the commitment to
follow through on path to adulthood with a sense of pride and accomplishment.
Through repeated failures in the classroom and the development of destructive habits, at-risk
young people have lost faith in the possibilities that await them if they are successful in
putting their lives together. To accomplish this goal, young people must be in a caring,
inclusive learning environment that promotes their best effort and reinforces personal respect.
Unite for Youth is a program that is in direct response to the growing number of young
people that are either falling through the cracks at school or are already entangled with the
juvenile court system. The goal of the program is to identify youths who are going to have a
turbulent transition to adulthood and offer positive support system to avoid the pitfalls that
can derail their lives. The focus is slightly different at each level but the goal remains the
same; empower the young person to make positive changes in his/her life.
Unite for Youth will focus primarily on middle school youths. It is projected that within three
years, 50% of the system’s students will be in middle school. This age group is particularly
problematic and a perfect time for mentoring to be effective.
Unite for Youth’s mentoring programs will pair a youth with mentor for 12 months. During
that time the two will participate in weekly planned activities to strengthen the relationship
between the two and improve the young person’s confidence and hopefulness. Mentors will
receive continuous training throughout the year and will participate in monthly meeting to
report the young person’s progress.
Over time, Unite for Youth will create a learning environment that will be
an invaluable resource to young people, aspiring mentors and the community at large.
6. Vison 2020:
The Government of Lesotho’s Vision 2020 vision states that, by the year 2020 Lesotho shall
be a stable democracy, a united and prosperous nation at peace with itself and its neighbours.
It shall have a healthy and well-developed human resource base. Its economy will be strong;
its environment well managed and its technology well established. The document identifies
seven pillars of development. These are democracy, unity, peace, education and training,
economic growth, management of the environment, and advancement in technology. This
project contributes to the attainment of Lesotho’s Vison 2020 and specifically to the
democracy, unity and peace pillar.
Why Us?
Unite for Youth is a program that is in direct response to the growing number of young
people that are either falling through the cracks at school or are already entangled with the
juvenile court system. The goal of the program is to identify youths who are going to have a
turbulent transition to adulthood and offer positive support system to avoid the pitfalls that
can derail their lives. The focus is slightly different at each level but the goal remains the
same; empower the young person to make positive changes in his/her life.

2.Mission
7. The mission of Unite for Youth is the pursuit of the following principles:
Commitment: Unite for Youth wants to inspire pro-social friendships, strong
interpersonal skills, and instill a sense of hope in the future.
Responsibility: The focus of Unite for Youth is to empower youth in establishing
goals and following through on commitments.
Possibility: Unite for Youth wants to expand the perspective of young people to make
them aware of life’s possibilities.
Support: An individual is dramatically influenced by their support system. Unite for
Youth wants to surround young people in a caring, inclusive learning environment.
Specific Objectives
Unite for Youth is being established to provide mentoring for at risk middle and high school
youth in the Greater Claremont area. The program will create partnerships with the local
school districts and the juvenile court system. Unite for Youth matches a caring adult
volunteer with a referred youth. Unite for Youth will setup four distinct mentoring programs:
Trailblazers: Trailblazers is the central program of Unite for Youth. At risk middle
school students and their mentors participate in a structured program of support.
Turnaround: Turnaround focuses on students who are chronically suspended from
middle and high schools.
Higher Ground: Higher Ground engages youth involved in the juvenile court system.
Lunch Friends: Lunch Friends works with children from local elementary schools.
Our Solution
Unite for Youth is a program that is in direct response to the growing number of young
people that are either falling through the cracks at school or are already entangled with the
juvenile court system. The goal of the program is to identify youths who are going to have a
turbulent transition to adulthood and offer positive support system to avoid the pitfalls that
can derail their lives. The focus is slightly different at each level but the goal remains the
same; empower the young person to make positive changes in his/her life.
Unite for Youth will focus primarily on middle school youths. It is projected that within three
years, 50% of the system’s students will be in middle school. This age group is particularly
problematic and a perfect time for mentoring to be effective.
The goal of the program is to identify youths who are going have a turbulent transition to
adulthood and offer positive support system to avoid the pitfalls that can derail their
lives. The focus is slightly different at each level. At the elementary school level, mentors
strive to guide the young person back into the mainstream of class activity in order to destroy
the negative reinforcers that can turn a student off to school. With middle school students,
Unite for Youth provides mentors that serve as developmental role models for young people
looking for direction. Sometimes it is as easy as a young person identifying with his mentor
rather than a person involved in criminal or destructive activities. Once a student has entered
high school with a history of classroom disturbances and poor academic skills, it takes a
tremendous proactive effort to assist a student in redirecting their lives. Unite for Youth has
found that group activities can service as a powerful reinforcer of hopeful behavior.

8. Market Size & Segments
Currently, middle school youths disturbances the majority of students being served by Unite
for Youth. Elementary children represent a critical group as they progress through
school. Children between the ages of five to 11 disturbances close to 40% of the children
attending Claremont public schools. It is projected that within three years, 50% of the
system’s students will be in middle school.
The target market for Unite for Youth are young people ages eight to 16 that have developed
destructive habits that will lead down a path of hopelessness. Unite for Youth has created a
series of mentoring programs that pair the young person with a trained mentor who will assist
him or her in developing the habits and perspective that will lead to success and hopefulness
in the future.
Unite for Youth has a number of market focuses that are key to the program’s success.
Youth who are overcoming stressors in their lives, such as poverty, discrimination,
abusive situations, addictions, unstable homes, and academic life, are the primary
marketing focus of Unite for Youth. Mentoring programs foster positive changes
through goal setting, self-discipline, skill development, and friendship.
Families are also the marketing focus when adult mentors are able to help youth work
on solutions for their family stresses, and provide an objective but caring sounding
board. As a result, many youth and their families report improved relations at home.
Families must buy into the benefit from our United Parenting program, a 10-month
series of custom-designed information and discussion groups that enrich parenting
effectiveness, especially in the area of cognitive skills associated with family
management practices.
Marketing also attracts mentors to Unite for Youth because they care about kids and
their community. The typical mentor-youth relationship demands a commitment that
must be sold to the potential mentor. For most mentors, this experience changes their
lives, taps their inner resources, and challenges their convictions and beliefs.
Ultimately, Unite for Youth is marketed to Claremont as a critical social support
system young people. Unite for Youth impacts how many other city services will be
called in to respond to destructive behaviour in the community.

Execution
Fundraising
Marketing Plan
Unite for Youth believes in the goal of leaving no child behind. The goal is to raise the
visibility of program to assure that:
Referral sources will use the service;
Funding sources will support the program;
Adults will volunteer to be mentors.
The marketing strategy will be to successfully sell this new resource to the schools and the
juvenile court system. This will be accomplished by a referral coordinator who will create
and maintain a network of contacts that will serve as the referral source for the program.
Brochures will be developed to sell the benefits of the program to both potential referrers and
participants. The referral coordinator will provide progress reports for the referring program,
school, or agency. The goal will be to build an effective marketing program on the success of
the mentoring relationships.
A marketing effort will also be implemented to attract and retain quality mentors for the
program. The program’s mentor recruiter/trainer will make presentations to Claremont civic
and social group, selling the benefits of participating in Unite for Youth. Reward activities
will be planned for mentors. These activities will be used to recruit new mentors from the
friends and associates of current mentors.
The core of the marketing strategy will be the creation of the program’s Board of Directors
who will be chartered with the responsibility of selling the benefits of the program to the
community.

Activities and offerings
Main programs
Unite for Youth offers youth, that have already been identified as at-risk, an opportunity to
work with a caring mentor to improve their ability to develop a positive attitude towards their
future. The long-term goal of Unite for Youth is to empower the young person to break the
habits that are leading to trouble in school and in the streets.
Unite for Youth has four mentoring programs. They are as follows:
Trailblazers: Trailblazers is the central program of Unite for Youth. At-risk middle
school students and their mentors participate in a structured program of support. At-
risk middle school students and their mentors participate in an energizing retreat,
followed by a seven month structured program that includes monthly team-building
and group activities. The program ends with a graduation but the mentor and youth
remain together for the following five months.
Turnaround: Turnaround focuses on students who are chronically suspended from
middle and high schools. The goal of the program is to rekindle the youth’s
commitment to learning and being successful in the classroom. By empowering young
people to finish school, mentors are improving the student’s success in the work
world as adults.
Higher Ground: Higher Ground engages youth involved in the juvenile court system.
The mentoring relationship is utilized to establish a program of change in the young
person’s life. The mentor encourages goal-setting, self discipline, and skill
development that improves the young person’s sense of hopefulness. Mentors and
youth work one-on-one for a year and are also offered opportunities to participate in
monthly group activities and outings.
Lunch Friends: Lunch Friends works with children from local elementary schools.
Adult mentors come to school each week to have lunch with their "friend." The
program lasts for the duration of the school year.
