Mon State Youth Policy to be drafted

-

The Mon State Youth Network will hold a forum on November 5-6, to draft a Mon State Youth Policy and select youth representatives, according to the forum organizing committee.

Based on the results and an approved Youth Policy draft, the representatives will participate in and discuss the draft at the Myanmar Youth Policy Forum in Nay Pyi Taw, during the second week of November.

“What we are working on now is the Mon State Youth Policy. The policy draft from this forum will be taken by representatives to the youth forum in Nay Pyi Taw. It is there that, with ministry officials and youths from other states, we will discuss the policy draft. We will then discuss further the broader Myanmar youth policy,” said U Myat Min, who is in charge of the Mon State Youth Policy Drafting committee.

U Myat Min went on to say that from September 6 to 29, the Mon State Youth Network held meetings with young people across Mon State’s 10 townships.

“At this forum, young people working at CSOs (Civil Society Organizations) will be participating. Young ethnic people will also join. We also invited all ethnic organizations. We will elect 12 representatives and these 12 representatives will then participate at the union level forum,” said Daw Khine Khine Le Myint.

The forum is being held to create youth policy for the whole country and to make sure the government responds to the public as required in their respective states and regions.

At the union level Youth Policy Drafting forum, the Ministry of Social Welfare, Relief and Resettlement, the Ministry of Health and Sport, the Ministry of Education, experts and UN representatives will be expected to join, and ultimately youths from states and regions will cooperate with the policy.
