Ghana Youth Day 2014 - 20.09.14
The Ghana Youth Day Committee in conjunction with Ghana High Commission UK in conjunction and Tullow Oil will be hosting Ghana Youth Day 2014. The Ghana Youth Day event is the Ghana High Commission’s response to the recent sad losses of life to gun and knife crimes, as well as a way to engage young people with the assistance of our supporters and collaborative community groups.
The day will be broken down into segments with workshops delivered by behavioural consultants from Suban Solutions and entertainment in the form of a cultural display and performances by the leading UK urban artists, Fuse ODG and Simply Andy.
Other notable attendees will include positive role models of Ghanaian culture who are considered ‘Achievers' from our community.
Ghana Youth Day is being proudly sponsored by Tullow Oil Plc and supported by ABN TV - Sky Channel 290, Ghana Union, Akwaaba UK, Noble Friends, Suban Solutions, GUBA, Me FiRi Ghana and Ghanaian Londoners. These community groups and organisations have come together as they recognise the need for an outlet in which critical dialogues can occur between peers, role models and parents alike.
The theme for the event is ‘Our Youth, Our Society, Our Future’ as we recognise the importance of young people to the future of our community. The negative portrayal of young people and opportunities available to them in the UK, are narrowing. The Ghana High Commission UK is taking an active role to prevent any further losses of young life and hopes that it can depend upon the Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) community as a whole to assist in its cause to do so.
