Youth-Led Community Engagement and Empowerment

About Program

 

behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia.

This program actively involves young people in various community engagement initiatives, leadership development activities, and decision-making processes. The aim is to empower youth to take charge of their community’s development, enhance their skills, and contribute positively to society.
