Welcome to issue number one September from Uganda News letter. This news letter was prepared by your country’s community connector, Henry Oriokot

Building TIG, young peoples’ capacity and creating opportunities for them within the African continent. as part of TIG youth development agenda do encourage young people to be part of key decision making processes around the continent and most essentially give them the opportunity to meet key influential decision makers. Therefore, we wish to inform you about the 1st TIG Youth E-Governance Summit in Uganda Kampala that took place last month, 2008.
E-Governance is a modern concept of governance that allows for more civic engagement in governance. However research has led us to findings that young people around the continent have very little or no knowledge of what the concept of E Governance has to offer.
I Intend to create an elevated awareness of the concept of TakingITglobal, E-Governance will lead to a change in attitudes regarding youth’s ability and role to influence the ongoing governing process, which will in turn result in the much desired increase in civic participation.

The 1st Youth E-Governance was is targeting young individuals in various public, private and civil society leadership positions who are likely to make decisions that will affect a larger group of people especially the youth.

We had so many youth who attended including some members of parliament.

• Young persons between the ages of 18- 35years.
• Must play a key role either in a students’ organisation or workplace, hence representing a bigger group or network of youth.
• Must be articulate and ready to make effective contributions to the summit
