Dakhla (refugee camps) June 12, 2011 (SPS) - The Prime Minister, Mr. Abdelkader Taleb Omar, praised Saturday the success of the National Youth Conference, considering it as "a strong motive for effectiveness of the Saharawi youth  in all fronts of struggle", during his concluding speech to the Conference held on June 9-11, which coincides with the Martyr's Day, in the wilaya of Dakhla, Saharawi refugee camps.

Prime Minister expressed “deep satisfaction” on the Conference results, adding that the participation of human rights activivts delegation from the occupied territories in addition to the Conference focus on the situation and aspirations of the Saharawi youth "were reasons behind the success of this Conference."

“The Saharawi state has made the youth engage from the beginning in the battle for liberation and work in the field.” Mr. Abdelkader Taleb Omar pointed out.

He underlined that the Polisario Front “maintained the overall coherence and organization of its institutions, as the time the Moroccan state has been trying to create division and confusion among the Saharawi citizens through its misleading propaganda.”

He also noted that Rabat's obstruction to the holding of the referendum in Western Sahara was due "to its conviction of the determination of the Saharawi people for independence, if the option of self-determination was allowed."

The Conference called for consolidating youth’s contributions to increase struggle in the occupied territories and refugee camps, stressing the necessity for the young Saharwis to use communication technologies in order to expose Moroccan policies of repression in the occupied Western Sahara.

The participants demanded preparing strict measures on social youth policies and called for strengthening relations between the institutions that have direct relation with youth.

The conference, which held in the wilaya of Dakhla on June 9-11, 2011 under the banner “Saharawi youth for liberation and construction”, is one of the decisions of the 2011 government program to set national policy for youth, which the government included in its 2006 program as one of the objectives of action in the social field. It is a pursuant to the directives of the National Secretariat of the Polisario Front, which discussed the youth and sports file in its meeting held on December 19, 2009. It also comes within the obligations of the Saharawi state in the framework of the African Union by recently signing the African Charter on Youth. (SPS)
