During the group sessions, participants were asked to work in groups and come up with what challenges are faced by the youth groups today.

Here are the issues and suggestions discussed:

Issues
Not enough new leaders and the need for leadership formation.

Not enough publicity given to events.

No support from parents who don’t encourage their children to participate in the activities organised.

Suggestions
Need to organise formation camps/ talks by external speakers to train more leaders.

Need to select supportive youth advisers to guide and grow the leaders instead of dictating what needs to be done.

Youth groups should leverage more on social media to promote and engage the youths for their events.

Parents should help their children balance out time spent between studies and their spiritual lives.

Parents should get involved with the events and be chaperones for activities and events.

Priests need to be more visible so that youths are comfortable to ask for spiritual guidance on the teachings of the Church.

Ensure succession planning is uniformed to a certain extent so it doesn’t disrupt the continuity of the group
