Exciting News!
PUNTNEFA Virtually Participated in Youth Online Learning Program
We are thrilled to announce that PUNTNEFA actively participated in the second day of the Youth Online Learning Program.
Recently, the Global Campaign for Education (GCE) unveiled a groundbreaking initiative - a youth and student-led academy designed to equip young individuals with the essential tools to engage in educational policy discussions at local, regional, and global levels.
This learning program forms a crucial part of GCE's Youth Leadership Program for the Implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which PUNTNEFA is proudly spearheading in Somalia in collaboration with the GCE and the United Nations Democracy Fund (UNDEF).
In the past week, PUNTNEFA extended invitations to numerous youth networks, organizations, and individual youngsters to join this platform and seize the invaluable opportunities for personal and professional growth offered by the ongoing classes.
To date, two enlightening sessions have been conducted focusing on (1) Understanding UN Structures in Pursuit of SDG4 and (2) Harnessing Research for Effective Advocacy and Lobbying. Over the next two weeks, GCE will host two more engaging learning programs covering (3) Digital Education, Gender Mainstreaming, and Education in Emergencies, and (4) Education as a Fundamental Human Right.
Throughout these virtual sessions, youth participants have exclusive access to the comprehensive online learning repository curated by the GCE, which provides a wealth of indispensable resources.
PUNTNEFA urges its members and all young people in Somalia to take full advantage of this remarkable opportunity. Stay tuned for further updates as we will be sharing more information during our upcoming Youth Caucus Consultation meetings in the following weeks.
Let's embark on this journey of empowerment and knowledge together!
