International Youth Day - 12 August International Youth Day is commemorated every year on 12 August, bringing youth issues to the attention of the international community and celebrating the potential of youth as partners in today’s global society. International Youth Day is aimed to draw attention to a given set of cultural and legal issues surrounding youth. The first IYD was observed on 12 August, 2000. This year’s IYD seeks to put the spotlight on youth engagement through the following three interconnected streams: * Engagement at the local/community level; * Engagement at the national level (formulation of laws, policies, and their implementation); and, * Engagement at the global level. #InternationalYouthDay #InternationalYouthDay2020 #YouthEngagementForGlobalAction #IYD #IYD2020 Ref: #UnitedNations ______________________________________________________ #ZeroHungerGhana (#ZHG) is a non-partisan, non-profit organization contributing to the wellbeing of the #Vulnerable (mobilised beneficiaries) in society (#Ghana, West #Africa) by: * Giving them access to safe, healthy and nutritious food; reducing hunger using a proven human centered model * Donation of water and other essential relief items * Sensitizing them on important and current issues * #Empowering them to drive their own developmental agenda (Grooming community development leaders) * Empowering other individuals to be part of impactful #CommunityDevelopment * Driving projects to tackle #FoodInsecurity, promote #Sustainable #FoodProvision and to empower #SelfDependence * #Livelihood #Empowerment - training for youths in the #Community * #FoodWaste management, #FoodHygiene and Food #Nutrition training * Training in small-scale Agriculture ______________________________________________________ DONATION CHANNELS * Products/Nonmonetary Donations, Contact Awo @myzawo On +233 (0) 249 267 112 * Mobile Money Donations: MTN - 0540 122 720, Dzidzor Ami Senanu @dzidzorr , Reference ZHG with Your Name * Bank Deposit in Ghana: Account Name: ZERO HUNGER GHANA, Account Number: 0100191581900 Bank: STANDARD CHARTERED BANK, Branch: INDEPENDENCE AVENUE BRANCH ____________________________________________________ https://www.instagram.com/p/CDzb5BlJgam/?igshid=1ixs37ktl4dfr
