Youth Think Tank II
 

The second Youth Think Tank took place on Sunday 13h July, 2008 and was attended by 25 young people representing four religious traditions. It turned out to be another very fruitful encounter. The following projects were suggested:

  • A Desmond Tutu Youth Facebook group where the youth can discuss matters
  • A Mixit DTDT youth group on cell phones
  • A cultural fashion show/ musical event with different foods etc
  • A 1 day campaign to “put on glasses to enable you to see the good in people”
  • A “Unite Tonight” campaign where everyone is encouraged to invite neighbours and friends of diverse backgrounds to celebrate diversity
  • A “Leadership” school for youth

The meeting expressed its support for on-going events of a similar nature. The possibility of having two such encounters per annum, i e in February and July was discussed. It was also felt that these encounters could be easily replicated in other centers if we had the capacity to do so.
