1. a)
If funds were available, what youth activities related to a CoP
would you like to do as an individual?
A: I would like
to do youth activities such as:
i) a summer workcamp in the
innercity communities and other communities which would involve
youth developing their various talents whether it be singing,
drawing, craft making etc... (possibly combine both)
ii)
Offer free workshops in basic computing and using the internet to
find useful information such as opportunities available
iii)Take young people from different youth groups and social
backgrounds on educational and fun field trips.
b) What non-financial support do you need to do these
activities?
A: The non-financial support needed include
provision of space and access to computers for a basic computer
workshop. The provision of a database of youth groups or social
groups in innercities The provision of motivational speakers. The
provision of supervision on field trips.
c) If
funds were available, what youth activities related to a CoP would
your organization like to do?
Based on the fact that my
group is environmental. Then the provision of funds to do
educational fun filed trips across the island. With even the
possibility of camping
d) What non-financial
support does your organization need for CoP activities?
The
same as stated for 1(b)
2. a) What changes in
youth policies do you think the government/leadership in your
country should make to promote a CoP?
Goverments should
ensure that youth policies stipulate the availability of adequate
and equal opportunities for all youth in an effort to ensure CoP.
Without opportunities there is the development of crime and thus a
break down in peace. As well as opportunities being equal thus
youths from all social backgrounds have access to the same or even
similar opportunities with minimal disparity.
b) What CoP youth activities/initiatives do you think
the UN should do?
Create projects that target the empowerment
of youth Provide more opportunities (voluntary and paid) within
the UN so youth can gain experience
