Yesterday was a powerful and inspiring day for Botha Bothe Youth and Adult Development (BYAD) as we had the privilege of attending two impactful youth-focused events in Maseru.
📍 National Youth Networking Pitso – Youth Power Hub
Held at the Manthabiseng Convention Centre, the National Youth Networking Pitso brought together young people from across Lesotho to engage in meaningful dialogue on advancing youth economic empowerment through access to finance for inclusive and sustainable livelihoods.
We truly appreciate the opportunity to be part of conversations that connect youth to explore innovative, youth-friendly financial solutions for sustainable development.
🌙 La Nuit des Idées (Night of Ideas) 2026
Later in the day, we were honoured to attend the Night of Ideas, co-hosted by , Youth Power Hub, and Alliance Française de Maseru , under the global theme .
The event provided a vibrant space for reflection on new paths forward in addressing today’s social, economic, and environmental challenges, with rich discussions on youth entrepreneurship, cultural exchange, inclusive tourism, environmental innovation, and economic empowerment.
🙏 We extend our sincere appreciation to UNICEF Lesotho,IOM Lesotho,Eu Lesotho, Alliances Française de Maseru, and all partners for creating platforms that amplify youth voices, creativity, and leadership. BYAD remains committed to engaging in spaces that promote dialogue, empowerment, and sustainable opportunities for young people.
Together, we continue opening the way for youth-driven change.
