CA Yunus highlights youth empowerment on World Population Day

Noting that adolescents and young people make up about 30% of Bangladesh's total population, Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus today (10 July) underscored the urgent need for developing this segment into a skilled, educated and healthy generation to ensure a better future for the country.

"Socio-economic development of the country hinges on the education, health, quality of life and empowerment of this large group," he said in a message marking World Population Day that falls on 11 July.

Yunus called on development partners, NGOs, the media and civil society to collaborate with the government in its efforts to build a strong and healthy nation.

Referring to this year's World Population Day theme, 'Empowering young people to create the families they want in a fair and hopeful world', he said the message is timely and significant.

"Let us unite in our efforts to guide Bangladesh forward on a path of sustainable progress and shared prosperity," said the chief adviser.

He stressed that beyond individual freedoms and the right to make informed decisions about family planning and reproductive health, society must uphold fairness and justice across generations. "Only then can we ensure sustainable development, better living standards, and lasting peace and stability."

Yunus also emphasised the importance of providing equal opportunities for all, regardless of gender, as a cornerstone for building a prosperous Bangladesh.

He noted that his interim government, formed through a mass movement led by students, workers, and the public, is committed to creating a discrimination-free society.

"In the spirit of the July uprising, our government is dedicated to harnessing the potential of our youth by strengthening initiatives in family planning, maternal and child health, and adolescent reproductive care," he said.

The chief adviser extended his best wishes for the success of all initiatives undertaken on the occasion of World Population Day 2025.
