Katherine Ellis - Director of Youth Affairs Division (Commonwealth) at the Caribbean Regional Senior Officials Meeting in Georgetown, Guyana: “while economist and pundits are focused on GDP and growth projections, it is all too easy to lose sight of the needs and potential of young people who are often worst hit by economic crisis.” She added “this generation can make an enormous contribution to national development with the right prioritization and investment.” She believes it is essential that the voices of the youths are heard and that government decision makers have the right policy tools available to them. “Sharing national experiences and working collaboratively, policy makers at this meeting will be putting the commitments of their leaders into action” she added. via Caribbean Regional Youth Council
