Report on the Commemoration of the GLOBAL YOUTH SERVICE DAY-2011 (SIERRA LEONE) ORGANIZE BY NETWORK MOVEMENT FOR YOUTH AND CHILDREN’s WELFARE-SL IN COLLABORATION WITH YOUNG MEN’s CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION(YMCA-SL), FREETOWN CITY COUNCIL(FCC) and its Community PARTNERS in DWAZACK, MABELLA and KROOBAY.
1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMERY:
Country Partners (formerly known as National Lead Agencies) serve as the lead convener and organizer of Global Youth Service Day in their respective countries. Country Partners promote GYSD, mobilize partners and local project organizers, lead high profile events, engage local media and government officials, and coordinate project registration and reporting.
Due to many challenges most of these tasks cannot be achieved as poor regional coordination affected our actual plans, low internet server is also a major factor, minimal Local financial supports.etc
This year GYSD would have not been commemorated had it not been for the intervention of Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA-SL) more especially the project manager slum project Mr. Francis Reffell and the Freetown City Council for their supports.
This year activities concentrated on dialogue, voluntary cleaning and beautification of three slum communities in the of the city of Freetown. During the dialogue session participant agreed to form National Youth Volunteer Network (NYV-Net) and some recommendation was made for this network to under take.
To conclude, these projects on its own would not have created a greater impact/success during implementations if we did not have the cooperation of Child Advocacy Network base in Mabella, Dwazack Youth Dev Org, Kroobay Youth, YMCA-Slum Team, Peter.K.Nyande of the YMCA of Simcoe/Muskoka-Canada, Mamaja Jalloh, Mr. Mohamed Konneh of West Africa Democracy Radio, CSOs, Youth groups, the Mass Media.etc
