UNYS Thanks Ms Raghavi Naidu

Picture
​UN Youth Seychelles would like to thank Ms. Raghavi Naidu for having served as President of the UNYS for a period of 2 years. Ms. Naidu who is an Economist by profession led the NGO determined to keep a positive team dynamics, contribute towards more sustainable development of projects and strengthening relationships with other organisation. Under her leadership the team realised several projects and this was presented in the annual review in the UNYS AGM.

She highlighted that "the year could be summarised under the theme 'Team members are the driving force'. The difficult conditions that the global pandemic has brought was met with a resilience network of collaboration, between members both overseas and locally. 
​This dynamic team spirit was fostered by activities such as a team retreat and numerous project meetings. The product of these collaboration has been made evident by the successful implementation of projects over these past two years. Namely, the Silver lining programme, miss Seychelles Future Cost Panel Discussion and securing funding from the Nation Grants Committee to deliver the Financial Education Programme. The latter including the well-received and insightful Global Money week 2020 & 2021 tours and budgeting workshops. These successes are more remarkable as they were delivered when the conditions and restrictions took a turn for the worse. Requiring some last-minute quick thinking, resourcefulness, and teamwork."
​
Under Ms. Naidu's term, the projects implemented were equally successful in engaging a wide representation of the public. The activities included the participation from the Deaf Association, financial professionals, Seychelles Nation Youth Assembly, and a Parents engaging with children budgeting workshop to name just a few. Ms Naidu will remain as an active member of the NGO. At this junction the team would like to recognise her effort and contributions in bringing the organisation forward. All the best in your future endeavours.

On Saturday 12th December, 2020 the members of UN Youth Seychelles enjoyed a Team Retreat. We got the chance to review projects implemented during the year, planned ahead for 2021 and learned more about each other through team-building activities. The members prepared well in advance for the Retreat by sharing their views on various topics through a Members Survey, whereby we determined priority projects, succession plans, external collaboration, what the 'new normal' means for us and our ways of working, top 4 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) the organisation would be focused on and which type of work each member enjoys more. This was also a way to end the year on a positive note by acknowledging the efforts of our members - a key driving force of the organisation!
