Provide incentives for youth in developing innovative ICT developments which is more accessible to their peers and more user-friendly in youth participation in decision making and provide adequate broadcasting or publicity to motivate them. Give youth a specific role in national ICT task forces or inter-ministerial bodies that develop ICT national strategies. -youth as a successful stakeholder , they should provide a role in drafting national strategies to design and incorporate ICT into education and job training
