"Weak leadership means poor service delivery. The youth [and masses at large] must be sensitized to choose leaders who carry a bigger vision for society, & not those who leave societies divided. Everyone has a role in promoting peaceful elections." ~Chairperson, DYC Bundibugyo

"In every election, youth play a pivotal role in promoting peaceful electoral processes. They need to be empowered with the right information to enhance their participation and understanding of rights and responsibilities during the election cycle." ~RDC, Bundibugyo

Youth are leaders, yet agents of both peace and conflict. Harnessing their potential to contribute to peaceful elections by fostering dialogues & knowledge sharing is a sure path towards peaceful 2026 elections. RFPJ continues to promote such dialogues across the Rwenzori region.
