QUESTION No 01 a)If funds were available, what youth activities related to the cop would you do as an individual?
ANSWER As lthe chairman of Uganda Youth Action Network, l would first mobilise the youth and teach them about C.O.P activities. If funds were available, l would recommend my organisation to sensitise the youth about the deadly Hiv/Aids Virus so that we prevent the early deaths among the youth.
Secondly. here in Uganda youth need some seminars on how to engage in politics
QUESTION 2 What non financial support do you need to do these activities?
Answer We need some people with political science knowlegde to address the youth.
we need some computers to enforce literacy among the youth.
Transport is also a problem to reach the youth in rural areas where we want to sensitize them about Hiv/Aids.
As we have been at war in Northern Uganda, we need clothings to cater for the youth who have suffered for almost 22 years.
Question2 What changes in youth policies do you think the Gonernment in your country should make to promote a c.o.p
Answer. The government of the Repulic of Uganda doesn't take Youth as people who also need help from.
There is a bill which Government wants to bring to parliament in that they want to abolish the National Youth Council because they don't have money to cater for it. The government should support the youth in all activities ie financially, because also they are citizens who have developmental issues.
The government should endeavour to register youth assocations with no strings attached to enable them carry out their activities. Quetion 3 What C.O.P youth activities do you think UN should support?
Anwer. The UN should let information conerning youth be available to others in the rural areas.
The UN should support those organisations who have political agenda concernng the youth to carry out activies on the COP.
UN should orgaise seminars and brief the youth about the bad or good thing they get as a result of their involvement in politics
