2. Economic Transformation, Entrepreneurship, and Job Creation
3. Education and Skills for the Future
4. Technology, Innovation, and Digital Transformation
5. Climate Change and Energy Transition
6. Social Cohesion and Security
As part of the conference’s outreach, virtual consultations will be conducted with young people in the diaspora, alongside direct engagements with youth from all 360 federal constituencies. Zonal and federal consultations are also planned, with provisions for submitting memoranda and policy papers.
Hon. Abiola emphasized the administration’s commitment to equitable inclusion, prioritizing the involvement of young women and youth with disabilities. She reassured young people across the country that the conference will be non-partisan, ensuring that all segments of the youth population are properly represented.
