	I am S. Urias Goll and I serve as the Program officer of the Mano River Union Youth Parliament QUESTIONS FOR WEEK TWO: 1. Based on your own experience and views on family planning, reproductive health, sexually transmitted diseases, gender equality and community participation in development, which issues need to be given more attention in your country? Ans. I think reproductive health and community participation in development 2. Do you have any suggestions of additional issues relevant to youth which would be important to add to the development (ICPD) agenda? Ans. I Think training young on how to develop their real potential and teaching them in creating better life skills/tools makes them more responsible and careful. They then see life as a race to victory instead of just living to eat and merry make. 3. Do you know of development projects addressing issues of poverty reduction, family planning, reproductive health and gender equality (i.e., related to ICPD) which were implemented with a high degree of youth participation and recognition? Were they successful why or why not? Ans. All the program I know of in Liberia relating to poverty reduction family planning, reproductive health and gender equality have not been implemented with a high degree of youth participation and as such did not yield the expected result 4. If you do not know of a development project related to core ICPD issues, you might want to share an experience with a development project with youth participation in general which you think could be used as a model for means to ensure youth participation in implementing strategies and projects related to family planning, reproductive health, sexually transmitted disease, and gender equality.Ans. YES Urias
