Raise your voice against corruption NOW!

Dear All,

We're launching dialogue forums to bridge the gap between young people and young Parliamentarians, and start a constructive discussion on relevant issues - outlining future recommendations and concrete steps. The Young Parliamentarians Forum intends to collate recommendations from these dialogue forums as a “policy document” to be presented to the Parliament.

There are four thematic areas we are generating a discussion on:

- Corruption: A source of insecurity amongst the young people

- Terrorism: Influencing youth aspirations in having a secure future

- Economic Empowerment: Opportunities for young people to avail better livelihoods

- Political Participation: Young Leaders as Future Leaders

How will it work?

Every month, we’ll pick one of these themes to have a dialogue session on. The dialogue session will take place with fifty to sixty young people face-to-face and will be facilitated by a famous TV host, Moeed Pirzada. The session will be on aired as part of Mr. Pirzada’s show “Dunya Today” on the news channel Dunya News.

We’re taking up “Corruption: A source of insecurity amongst the young people” as the theme for November 2010. You can participate in the dialogue online by visiting http://www.britishcouncil.org.pk/ and helping us find answers to the questions related to Corruption.
