Youth Empowerment For Urban Development

800x600

The overall goal of the project is to improve the livelihoods of urban marginalized youth. This will through normative and programmatic activities enhance their inclusion in governance, access to financial resources, and provision of training and information through dedicate urban space. The project will utilize an integrated approach that will focus on critical interventions to strengthen the capacity of youth, local governments and strategic partner institutions to address urban youth issues.

There are two main expected accomplishments (intermediate outcomes):

 Improved livelihoods for marginalised youth in urban slums

Improved inclusion of young people in governance issues at all levels.

 

There are four sub-expected accomplishments (immediate outcomes):

 

 Increased access to financial resources by marginalised youth.

 Increased number of urban youth centres and training of youth in targeted cities.

  Increased knowledge and sensitization of national local authorities in targeted countries on matters of youth.

  Enhanced engagement of strategic partners (national, local, civil society, private sector and youth organizations) on matters of youth.
