Former Political Leader and present UPP caretaker for All Saints West, Harold Lovell described a youth listening session in the constituency last night as a “great success,” praising the energy and engagement of the 20 young participants.

Lovell, drawing on his experience as a university professor, said the session provided a valuable platform for young people to share their dreams, aspirations, and the challenges they face in pursuing their goals. While he respected participants’ privacy by not sharing photos, Lovell highlighted the candid and inspiring nature of the discussions.

“The energy in the room was contagious, full of passion, determination, and hope for the future,” Lovell said. “By listening to their stories, we can lead better. These young people are brimming with potential, and I am committed to walking alongside them as they shape their future.”

Lovell emphasized the importance of mentorship and guidance, noting that connecting with the next generation allows leaders to provide practical tools, encouragement, and perspective to help youth achieve their ambitions.

    It’s great to see leaders actually listening to young people instead of just talking at them. This is how change starts!

    How Antigua.news knows the event was successful. I see a man in a chair. That doesn’t show me any success.

    Elections coming soon? That’s why all of a sudden everyone wants to “listen.”Youth need jobs and opportunities, not just speeches.
