Youth Convention
Today's
generation of young people is the largest in history of Pakistan,
nearly 67% of the Pakistan population are under the age of 25. Almost
60% of all young people live in rural areas. Young people are a valuable
asset for Pakistan and investing in them brings tremendous social and
economic benefits. They also face challenges including violence and
crime, unemployment, SRHR issues and HIV/AIDS that undermine their
rights and create significant social and economic costs to society.
It is crucial that we engage the young decision makers of tomorrow in
the development decisions of today. In this situation DASE Foundation
Pakistan organized a Youth Convention on SRHR with the support of AWAZ
Foundation Pakistan and Rutger WPF under the Parwan Project at Govt.
Boys High School Nawabpur. We hope that the Youth Forum on SRHR will
contribute to this goal.
