By AdminUpdated 5:50 p.m., Thursday, July 21, 2022, Atlantic Standard Time (GMT-4).

As Saint Vincent and the Grenadines ushered in its first National Youth Parliament today, Minister of Education Hon. Curtis King says this historic setting is a platform for grooming future leaders.

The Education Minister lamented the absence of a robust National Youth Council, from which many leaders and current parliamentarians passed through, he added that this Youth Parliament gives hope to a reviving of the National Youth Council. 

“…I know what a wonderful training organization NYC was and therefore I am looking forward to the revitalization of the NYC and I really hope that this summit would act as a stimulus for such an eventuality”. 

The Bill being tabled in the Youth Parliamentarian is the Education Transformation Bill.
