As we gear up towards the 9th Global RCE Conference, Japan. I wish to call on all of us to raise our voice in calling for active participation of youths in our immediate environment to take up the challenge of the Post-2014 Decade of Sustainable Development.

It is time to checkmate our activities and identify areas that need to be improved, in view of global demands of our environment and the social well being of the teeming populace in our community.

This will go a long way in sustaining the already established development and enhance a collective action which will live no one behind.

We therefore, should rededicate our selfs to the creation of programmes and activities at schools, communities among others that are positive and will have impact on the Post-2014 era.

I wish us a prosperous deliberations ahead.
