a brief interview with Cameroon's Solange

INTERVIEW WITH Solange Nga Tsala



BY: KYLE VENKTES


Today, on the second day of the International Youth Crime Prevention and Cities Summit I was fortunate enough to meet Solange Nga Tsala a delegate from Cameroon.

Solange is involved in various youth related organisations of which are very beneficial to the youth of Cameroon. By attending the International Youth Crime Prevention and Cities Summit, Solange was hoping to exchange ideas with other delegates and also gain international trends of how other youth organisations operate. Solange is involved in several programs in Cameroon, getting the youth to express themselves through a city youth counsel run by the police, and to give the youth an opportunity to add input into how their respective communities are run.

Solange is enjoying her stay in South Africa and described Durban as an international summit host city as ‘modern’. She is also happy to be attending this conference because she feels that her work with youth of Cameroon is confined,in the sense that they have a local limitation and need to gain ideas from other countries.


We hope indeed, that she will be successful...
