ROLE OF YOUTH IN NATION BUILDING

Youth all over the history has been revolutionary force. Youth is that phase of life where dreams are built and a bright future is foreseen. These are the years to foster moral principles, construct value system and begin an all-new journey on the path of the 'right'. Nation’s strength is in its youth. We can play a significant role in the development of the country not only economically but also by morally and practically.

The term nation building or national development is usually used to refer to a constructive process of engaging all citizens in building social cohesion, economic prosperity and political stability in a nation in an inclusive and democratic way.

The vision of our country lies in the hands of our youths. They are filled with tremendous and towering ambitions.  It will be a great wastage of human resources if these youths are not given an opportunity to exercise their talent. This beautiful land needs these youths in order for our soil to become a brighter one.

The primary role of young people is to get a good education in order to become better citizens of tomorrow. They need to learn skills to do the job that their country’s economy needs. They also need to know how to read, write, think, understand, analyze and discuss the issues their country faces. The entire success of the nation depends on the youths. To help other youths in building confidence and pursuing the field of interest. Guide newcomers in every field on right lines. They need to promote the fair image of the country before the world. Their aim is to serve the country with their skills and talent in various fields. They wish to refresh the culture, trend and traditions of the society.

Youths are fighters. They fight for an identity in society, equality, the homeless, bullying, unemployment, exploitation, poverty and other problems which the world faces today. All of them hopes for a world full of opportunities, so great minds can conquer them and become better individuals. They need good morals and values to handle conflicts in a positive way. We have aspiring doctors, entrepreneurs, scientists, and who knows; maybe the next president.

Youths are problem solvers. They just need to be given a chance to prove themselves. They can play a vital role in the elimination of terrorism. Youths have the power to unite individuals in the six ethnic groups. Racism is an ongoing issue around the world. Individuals are fighting against each other because of the complexion of their skin and the texture of their hair. Religion is another issue, the youths can convince their fellow man to live in peace and love. All of us are one and we should not allow these little differences to push us away from each other.

The youths are our life and nation. They will make our country proud. The country will be recognized. The youths just need the support from their fellow citizens and they will perform their duties.
