As part of the commemoration of the 2018 Annual Commonwealth Day Celebration, a Youth Walk was organised on Saturday, 10th March 2018, by the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration in collaboration with other stakeholders.
The Youth Walk saw the coming together of officials of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration, the Royal Commonwealth Society (RCS), officers and personnel of the Ghana Armed Forces and the Ghana Police Service as well as students of some second cycle institutions namely, Accra Girls, Achimota and Odorgornor Senior High Schools.
In Ghana, the celebration focused on the Youth and Education, based on the premise that the Youth are the future leaders of the world and education, the foundation for sustainable development. In this regard, Ghana adopted the sub-theme, “Technical and Vocational Education and Training as a Catalyst for Sustainable Development for the Youth”, to highlight skill-based training as one of the solutions to Youth empowerment and economic development initiative.
