佐藤栄作 受賞論文集

hopeless case. By promoting the political and economical participation of youth,it can begin to empower young people to have the confidence to shape their ownmore prosperous futures. Most importantly, the UN can help promote youth as asource hope for positive change in Africa. After all, the idea of human developmentis derived from a sense of hope ? hope for a better, more secure, and prosperousfuture. It is therefore a case of helping to shape the creativity, energy and enthusiasmthat already exists among African youth. For evidence that this passion for positivechange exists in abundance, we need look no further than numerous examples ofyoung Africans volunteering as part of UN and African Union programs to challengepoverty all over the continent. Ranging from health, environmental, agriculture, jobcreation and broad based development initiatives, the World Youth Report 2007documents some of the many different ways young Africans participate as volunteerson a daily basis to challenge poverty and build stronger, more resilient communities(United Nations 2007: 105-118). Such commitment truly represents an enthusiasm forthe values of the kind of human development that the UN will embody in helpingAfricans to challenge poverty at every level, in all its manifestations.ReferencesAfrican Youth Charter.
