Preamble

  Decision A/DEC.13/01/05 of 19th January 2005 at Accra, Ghana as a
  specialized Agency of the Economic Community of West African States
  (ECOWAS).
• At
  the 32nd session of the ECOWAS Summit held in June 2007, the Heads of
  States and Government adopted a new approach to regional integration by
  approving a new global vision called the ECOWAS Vision 2020. The principal
  objective of this vision is to move the Community from an «ECOWAS of
  States» to an «ECOWAS of Peoples» by the year 2020.
• Consequently,
  the EYSDC implements her policies, activities and strategic action plans,
  as well as the ECOWAS vision in the areas of youth and sports, including
  the ECOWAS Volunteers Programme. The EYSDC’s objective is to initiate,
  develop, coordinate and implement youth and sports programmes within the
  Community. To this end, it works to:
• Mobilise
  the different segments of the population to ensure their integration and
  effective participation in the social development of the region, as well
  as the promotion of youth organisations and professional associations to
  ensure maximum participation in the activities of the Community;

  structural modifications following the transfer of the ECOWAS Volunteers
  Programme (EVP) from the Political Affairs, Peace and Security Department
  of the Commission (CPAPS) to the EYSDC, under the Social Affairs and
  Gender Department.

  country. The strategic directions, including the formulation of the
  overall vision, goals and objectives of the Programme, is the
  responsibility of the Regional Coordination Council (RCC), whose role,

  Council (RCC) includes representatives of relevant departments of the
  ECOWAS Commission. The RCC is chaired by the Commissioner for Social

  executive arm of the RCC is the Regional Office, provided by the EYSDC in

  activities are coordinated by a Regional Coordinator under the supervision
  of the EYSDC Director. Although the EVP is under the Youth Division of the
  EYSDC, it is directly supervised by the EYSDC Director for effectiveness.
• At
  the National level, the National Coordination Council (NCC) serves as the
  national body through which national policy guidelines for the Programme
  are given. This Council works towards the understanding and entrenchment
