Solution

Training is central in that it aims to provide the young people concerned with the knowledge, skills and tools to enable them to play their full role as citizens of this nation. It is within this framework that the NGPG 228 Project: New Generation for Participatory Governance in Togo falls within this framework for period of 6 months.

It is therefore with this in mind that this project aims to train young people to take an interest in public action, social and electoral action, which is a guarantee of good public governance in the country. This project also plans to carry out other activities in favor of young people to raise their awareness of their role in the management of public affairs.

Problem
In Togo, the population in general and in particular young people are not interested in public action, social and electoral action and this is deplorable. According to Afro barometer figures (2013), a non-partisan survey and research project in Africa that measures citizens' attitudes towards democracy and governance, the economy, civil society and other issues, 26% of Togolese are very interested in public affairs, 22% are more or less interested and 30% are not interested at all; 3% of Togolese often meet politicians, 6% sometimes, and 90% never. This figure indicates the gap between the rulers and the governed. This is a barrier to the involvement of all and to sustainable development.

. Through these actions I wanted to go further and it is from there that I thought of creating a Centre that will work for the development of Africa. Thus, the African Centre for Participatory Governance was launched in May 2018, which led me to participate in session 13 YALI Dakar in Public Management.

This vision led me to create in 2018 a youth club called YOUNG ALWAYS BETTER whose objective is to raise awareness among Togolese youth on civic engagement, citizenship, participation in work on governance, democracy and living together.
