All young people should care to recognise and demand respect for their rights if they will help promte them in their local communities and to champion Social Justice. To live in justified communities, it will take a whole some commitment of all stakeholders to see to it that people at least can afford to enjoy their basic freedoms that root root from the universally declared Human rights by the United Nations (UN). Al programmes that promote young people's rights must create an eneviroment that encourages their active and meaningful participation especially in Decision making, in decent work, in leadership and therefore in taking responsibility in community develeopment. Thats justice promoted and enjoyed.

HUMAN RIGHTS AND DEMOCRACY
“Where, after all, do universal human rights begin? In small places, close to home – so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. Yet they are the world of the individual person; the neighborhood he lives in; the school or college he attends; the factory, farm or office where he works. Unless these rights have meaning there, they have little meaning anywhere. Without concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world.”
