FES Ghana and the Youth Network for HumanRights and Democracy have been interested in the opinion ofthe youth regarding issues on oil and gas, because they are thefuture generation which have to deal with possible consequencesand challenges in the next decades. Moreover, due to the factthat those young people represent a large number of the overallpopulation, it is necessary that their voice will be heard.
