Sense Act Workshop Empowers Youth in Sierra Leone

The Sense Act Workshop recently took place across three major cities in Sierra Leone: Freetown, Makeni, and Kambia. The workshop brought together 100 participants, including youth representatives, youth organizations, and key stakeholders. The event, organized by ComDev Africa’s country manager Melvin Koroma, ambassadors, mobilizers, and volunteers, provided young leaders with the necessary tools to initiate meaningful projects within their communities.

The workshop focused on equipping participants with practical skills to take concrete action and implement local initiatives. Through interactive group sessions, attendees shared ideas on community challenges and collaborated on finding effective solutions. The event fostered teamwork and encouraged young changemakers to take ownership of social development in their respective regions.

Following the workshop, participants are now skilled in organizing themselves and launching local projects with support from community stakeholders. Through the activity, they’re expected to create a lasting impact in different regions, empowering youth to lead and manage activities that address pressing social issues. This way, the Sense Act Workshop has set the stage for sustainable community-driven change in Sierra Leone by fostering independent leadership and grassroots action.
