About Us
Yesteryears Dream of Ijesa Youth Development Foundation- Coming to Life!. private and public partnership of sort for development is inevitable just as it is becoming increasingly difficult for government to continue to provide all the services that are needed due to increasing costs, population explosion, neglect and the current economic situation. Without private and individual partnership supports, our common problems will remain unsolved.
Ijesa Youth Development Foundation (IYDF) is not political. Our interests lie in helping our youths, to complement the efforts of our government at uplifting the standard of living of the youths and to give them a room to develop since they are the leaders of tomorrow. IYDF notes with great sense of pride, the critical role of our Youth in development of our Motherland! The youths are indeed a great asset for the present and for the future greatness of our land! Therefore, all forward looking people no matter their political affiliations and religious appeals, so far their interest is about development, are welcome.
Ijesa Youth Development Foundation recognizes that youth development is the bedrock of sustainable development—the engine, not simply an input, of the economy. More importantly, our ability to develop as a nation particularly for nations like ours to attract growth in industries and create jobs, demands a fresh approach to youth development and empowerment. And we need to act accordingly. Every developmental agenda and policy by government need to be aligned with, to prepare youth with the 21st century skills that they need to compete favourably with their peers, if the object of the national life must be achieved. There is huge emphasis on multi-platform co-operation towards development. Government alone cannot be left to turn around issues and it is even evident that communities and nations have their peculiar challenges which they need to deploy their own internal mechanism and innovation to conquer. It is becoming increasingly difficult for government to continue to provide all of the services that are needed due to increasing costs, neglect and the current economic situation. Without private and individual partnership supports, our common problems will remain unsolved. This neccesitated the birth of this dream as economy world over is now driven by innovation and knowledge.Market places also engage in intense competition and constant renewal. The whole world now pervades of tremendous opportunities and risks yet society is facing complex business, social, political, scientific, technological, health and environmental challenges which are asking for solutions.
