Dr Hounton lauds UNFPA Ghana’s YoLe initiative, commits to promoting it beyond Africa
The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Regional Director for West and Central Africa, Dr Sennen Hounton, has pledged to promote UNFPA Ghana’s youth development programme, popularly known as Youth Leaders Fellowship Programme (YoLe), across Africa.
The UNFPA official noted that while some countries operate national service schemes and others have youth empowerment programmes, Ghana’s model brings together different elements to create broader opportunities for young people.
The YoLe Fellowship is a one-year programme by UNFPA Ghana designed to equip young people with ethical leadership skills, professional development opportunities, mentorship and coaching from accomplished leaders across various sectors.
