The World Youth Alliance is in the process of developing a handbook “Africa We Want” that will provide analysis, views and visions of young Africans on different social justice concerns. The discussion handbook will be designed to discuss challenges facing Africa with questions at the end of every article that are designed to awakening Africa’s youth and push them for a positive change. This handbook will be in line with WYA mission of promoting human dignity and integral development.
We are seeking qualified and prominent people along with grassroots stories from different backgrounds pertinent to our topics of discussion to write articles that will compose the handbook and we would like to take this opportunity to have Network members contribute articles.
Possible topics to explore include (but are not limited to):
* Foreign Aid
* Conflicts in Africa
* Ethnicity
* African Culture
* Leadership and Governance
* Institutional Capacity
* Political Integration
* Poverty Eradication and Food Security
* Human Dignity
* Integral Human Development
The articles should be 1,500-2,000 words long and the deadline for submissions is 31st August 2011.
Email articles to africa@wya.net and/or felogene.wyaa@gmail.com.
You can also submit articles relevant to the theme that have been published elsewhere by young people as long as you indicate the source.
