Mr Ludwig Hlodze, National Youth Organiser of the ruling National Democratic (NDC) Congress, has said the Tertiary Education Institution Network [TEIN] would be positioned as a catalyst to galvanize support for the party on campuses across the nation through intellectual discourse.
He said this would enable the youth in NDC to appraise views expressed by member institutions on various party and national issues raised at forums during the just ended regional tours by the National Youth Organiser and his deputies.
Mr Hlodze said this initiative would be out-doored on Friday at Winneba Sports College on the theme: "Better Ghana Agenda, Rejuvenating our structures with discipline and Volunteerism for
Victory 2012".
Mr Hlodze said it would provide the platform for executives of TEIN and the various Regional Youth Organisers and resource persons to brainstorm on initiatives that would strategically
position TEIN to attract, retain and sustain membership throughout the country.
"TEIN will also be re-oriented towards the growing needs of the party so the organization can provide a solid research base and to engage more in intellectually driven activities for the party towards Victory 2012," Mr Hlodze stated.
The conference would attract over 400 delegates from 87 tertiary Institutions and campuses nation-wide, including regional youth organizers and their deputies, Ministers of state and government appointees.
Vice President John Dramani Mahama would open the conference on Friday, November 26, 2010 at the Aggrey Hall on the South Campus of the University of Education, Winneba.
The speakers include Dr Kwabena Adjei, the NDC National Chairman, Mr P.V. Obeng, Chairman of the National Development Planning Commission; Mr Elvis Afriyie-Ankrah, Deputy Minister for Local Government and Rural Development; Mr Tsatsu Tsikata, an Energy Expert and others.
