Dear Members of the Media:

I am writing on behalf of the YES Campaign Committee, inviting you to attend the Third Global Youth Employment Summit, 'YES Kenya, 2006', to be held in Nairobi, Kenya from September 13-16, 2006.

The YES Campaign is a youth-led response to the enormous global challenge of youth unemployment. In over 60 countries, young leaders are bringing together diverse stakeholders through the infrastructure of YES Country Networks to take actions that result in productive and sustainable employment and livelihood opportunities for youth. The YES Campaign works with national and global partners to develop and deploy effective programs that realize the following goals:

Develop capacity of youth to lead in-country youth employment initiatives, promote
(in-country) youth employment to address key development challenges and build
in-country coalitions to develop national strategies addressing youth unemployment.

Your participation is important to create long-term solutions and partnerships for promoting youth employment and livelihood.

We would appreciate your confirmation and esteemed attendance at the summit. Looking forward to your confirmation.

Sincerely yours,
Smriti Suman
