YOUTH IN HUANTA OFFER A DEVELOPMENT AGENDA BY USING LOCAL RESOURCES


More than 35 representatives from youth organizations in the province of Huanta came together for making a development agenda in the region, based on the use of local resources and active youth participation in the civil society.

Among the proposed initiatives, it was stressed the execution of actions for drugs abuse prevention (particularly alcohol and illegal drugs) through sports, workshops using the peer to peer education methodology (youngsters educating their friends) and artistic-cultural events. Furthermore, the participants agreed on promoting healthy recreational spaces, such as short trekking day and team building through food gatherings and social actions. In this way, youngsters expect to gain an active role in the civil society and lead a mindset of peace and positive behaviour.
