Community centres are intended not only for raising public awareness but also to address issues directly related to economic, health, social development. He said that activities of the community centres in developing countries are found to be highly beneficial to the respective associations. They are the places where people come to study, to get information, and to discuss the development of the community, he said.
The Prime Minister has instructed to educate the youth and correct their ideology, and therefore, it is necessary to prioritize activities aimed at youth development in community centres, he marked. He highlighted the need to systematically upgrade library services as the necessary expenditures for the transfer of digital libraries have been allowed, and to prioritize the purchase of books and periodicals that support youth development. He called on the staff to improve the work with good intentions as it is time to change the work of the Ministry of Information.
