Quotes African youth are becoming more courageous, countries have changed parliaments, countries have changed presidents, countries have changed political parties that have been ruling for years and this is because of young people. I think that alone goes to show how much young people are courageous. Until young people are seated at the table, we will not see meaningful change. We can realize the Africa we envision. The Africa we want is within our hand because Africa is young. Summit Participants Highlight Immense Potential of Continent’s Youth ENA (8 April 2025) We gather here not just to celebrate but to remind ourselves of the great power that lives in the hearts of Batswana. It is built by young people who refuse to take the backseat. Their drive shows that solutions for global challenges can start right here in Botswana.
