 The 2015 National Youth Reform Conference was an event held on 25th -27th, July 2015 at the National Centre for Women Development, Abuja.   The event was a laudable and commendable effort hosted by the National Youth Reform Group, with a number of Youth audience representing civil society organization, Non-Government Organizations, Faith Based Organizations, Student Bodies, Community Youth Leaders, Public Servants, Civil Servants, Political Youths, Religious Stakeholders, Ethnic Groups, Actors, Actress and Young Professionals etc. within the six geo-political zones in the country with the intention of creating a highly interactive, inspiring, motivation, challenging and unleashing platform for young people to educate themselves and chart a course for a better youth sector and a prosperous Nigeria.  Also the conference is an avenue for young people to discuss the need for all-inclusive change in Nigeria. However, the event featured the launching of a re-orientation programme tagged “catch them young” which aimed at sensitizing youth and students on right orientation and attitude. The organizers of this event believe that the result of the event will awaken the consciousness of the new generational leaders of influence; discourage charlatanism especially in youths trusted with positions of leadership.
