Kaieteur News- The People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR) on Sunday held a Young Professional Conference, which it said served as a key platform for presenting the party’s comprehensive plans for the youth of Guyana.
The conference held at Congress Place, Sophia, is a manifestation of the PNCR’s commitment to empowering Guyana’s young professionals and providing them with the opportunity to define their role in the development of Guyana, the party said in a press release.
The conference also constituted a platform to consult with the youth and for them to be an integral part of shaping the future of Guyana, the party said. According to the PNCR, the conference listened to a presentation by the Leader of the PNCR and Opposition, Aubrey Norton in which he discussed the Party’s vision and policies, in which he stated that the development of the youth is one of the key priorities of his Party and that there will place significant focus on the growth and development of young people across all sectors, including sport, culture, entrepreneurship, and employment opportunities.
The event also served as a platform for discussions, allowing young professionals to share their insights, concerns, and recommendations on what is needed to create an environment that supports and facilitates the aspirations of the youth of Guyana.
“The Leader stated that youth involvement is crucial in driving the nation forward, and that he was overjoyed to hear directly from this generation of leaders, innovators, and change agents. As the Leader stated in his address, youths are often referred to as the future but I believe and know that …young people are both the present and the future and future leaders of our society,” the statement quoted Norton as saying.
The PNCR recognises the vital role that youth, sport, and culture play in national development and is committed to providing the necessary resources and opportunities to foster a brighter future for all Guyanese. “As the country prepares for the 2025 General and Regional Elections, the Party reaffirms its dedication to creating a society where the potential of every young person is maximised, ensuring that they have the support, resources, and opportunities to thrive as the PNCR places the people at the centre of development,” the statement read.
The event saw presentations from key party officials and young leaders, and was attended by hundreds of young professionals from all regions who had hours of interaction with Party leaders. The Party underscored how pleased it was to consult with the youth of Guyana and committed to staying engaged with the youth of Guyana.
