Happy International Youth Day!

Today, the Ministry of Youth and Sports joins young people across Seychelles and around the world in celebrating the energy, creativity, talent and potential of our youth.

As highlighted by the President, our young people may be spread across our islands, but we are connected by shared dreams, aspirations and a common future. No young person should feel unheard or left behind because of where they live.

As we embrace new technologies and opportunities, let us also remain proud of our identity, values, culture and traditions. Our youth are not only the leaders of tomorrow — you are active contributors to Seychelles today.
