Groups such as International Youth Fellowship provide solution to people's problems and build their characters.

These were the words of Assistant Minister for Women, Children and Social Protection Sashi Kiran while officiating at the 2024 Youth Day in Samabula.

Kiran says many people, especially youths, go through anxiety, depression and nervousness and don't usually get the support they need in life.

She says due to this, they also engage themselves in drugs and other crimes, which is an issue nowadays.

However, Kiran says youth organisations provide them the support they need, guidance to overcome their challenges in life, and build a better version of themselves.
