Good evening Zambia πΏπ² and Mufumbwe constituency in particular,
As we all know, despite making up more than half of the population in many countries, young people (ages 18-30) often find themselves marginalized from mainstream politics and decision making.
They struggle to gain the respect of public officials and are seen as lacking the skills and experience to engage in political activity and lead positive change in their communities. This exclusion, combined with limited educational and economic opportunities, can leave young people both idle and frustrated with the status quo.
Todayβs youth need real opportunities to participate in political processes and contribute to practical solutions that advance development. When given an opportunity to organize, voice their opinions and play a meaningful role in political decision making, young people consistently demonstrate their willingness and ability to foster positive, lasting change.
They also become more likely to demand and defend democracy, and gain a greater sense of belonging.
That's why as aspiring candidate for Mufumbwe constituency, I support young people to channel their energy, creativity and aspirations and become political leaders and activists.
Once elected as Member of Parliament for Mufumbwe constituency, I will ensure we have plans that build young peopleβs skills, knowledge and confidence while helping them more effectively express their voices, build relationships with political leaders, and break down sociocultural and institutional barriers to participation.
