IYC Samuel Watulatsu speaks out at the Youth Forum Conference in Uganda

To the IYC Community,

IYC would like to share some great news about one of our members from
Uganda. Samuel Watulatsu, IYC Representative to Uganda and Founder For
Development of Needy Communities, spoke at the 2010 Uganda Youth Forum
Conference that took place in Teso. His speech covered Youth
Entrepreneurship and innovation for the income generation. Please read
about one of his inspiring statements.

" It is my wish that Ugandan youth begin to be engaged in focused
enterprises as the need for action always exceeds the limits of
government. There is plenty that government can and must do but
there's a lot that government can't and shouldn't do and that's where
entrepreneurship by the youth is required "

Thank you so much Samuel Watulatsu for your amazing work in youth
empowerment! IYC stands behind you and your incredible work.

IYC Mission

The International Youth Council (IYC) is a non-profit, non-governmental organization founded at the UN Youth Assembly in 2007 dedicated to giving young people across the world both collective voice and a mechanism to support global sustainable development.

Our mission is to bring together and support young leaders from around the world in pursuit of partnership, progress, and the Millennium Development Goals. We seek to empower the next generation of leaders by providing them with the training, resources, and opportunities they need to succeed. We also advocate for an official body representative of the youth within the United Nations power structure.

We hope to inspire the youth of the world to act and give them the tools to make a difference.
