There has not been any other campaign as massive and as important as the EAC Inter-university Social media challenge that aims to bring the youth together, the youth in EAC are the biggest yet often overlooked stakeholder, to bring them together, to give them a platform that is not only youth-driven but also one that is far reaching in its scope is a timely move. The Connect, Vuka Border initiative that is working with the Ministry of EAC and funded by Trade Mark East Africa has given the youth a chance not only to get information on opportunities available in EAC but also ways in which those opportunities are being exploited and what needs to be done by the youth to benefit and exploit all opportunities coming their way as a result of the EAC integration.
Whats more interesting? the initiative is seeking to ingrain an EAC week in the academic and activity calendar of various universities where the universities across the region will commemorate the East African Community in their own ways, this will tremendously boost youth engagement in the whole process of regional integration. To achieve this, there is a massive petition to the various University administration for the inclusion of the EAC week in their academic calender. Over 10,000 petitions have, so far been collected. Be part of this movement. Be an EAC youth. Use
