The United Nation’s Day was observed on October 24, 2022. Participation of the youth was given impetus as it is one of the guiding principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. With it, young people should be given empowerment for their development. The youth play a vital role particularly in the community as well as in the family.

The activity for youth empowerment has given The Rotaract Club of Jaro Centraline, with support from the Rotary Club of Jaro Centraline (RCJC), a special Alumni Chapter of CPUAAI – an opportunity to inspire young people to be trained in vital life-skills, and development of knowledge on positive civic action.
