What we stand for

Three commitments for a peaceful South East

The summit is built around what young people can do in their own communities, starting now.

  • Speak. Learn. Unite.

    A platform for young people from every LGA to share what they see in their communities, learn from each other, and act together.

  • Say no to violence and social vices

    Youth leading the conversation against violence, drug abuse, cultism, and other vices that put our communities at risk.

  • Partner with security agencies for peace

    Building trust and working relationships between youth groups and security agencies across the South East.
