Our Programmes

Three flagship programmes driving youth participation in governance, democracy and national development.

🌍

National Youth Dialogue on the SDGs

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted in 2015, is the international community's ambitious response to today's most pressing global development challenges. Youth people play a key role in shaping this agenda and experience first-hand many of the issues it seeks to address. We host young persons across all 36 states for SDGs mainstreaming, implementation, monitoring and evaluation.

📢

Voice To The Youth (V2Y)

Young persons are indispensable ingredients of our today's democracy as they represent at least two thirds of the votes. The voices of the youth in the mandate political office holders enjoy at all levels of government. Days are gone when young people are only recruited during election to create violence. Youth are now the engine and agenda drivers of our inclusive democracy. V2Y is a good governance project supporting Youth of States in the Southwest region to raise their voices to demand rights and services to which they are entitled.

⚖️

Legislature – Youth Engagement

The legislature is not only a symbol of democracy but also the participatory space of development. As an arm of government, the legislature provides citizens the opportunity to participate in law making and oversight of the other arms of government projected to accountability in public governance. This program enhances legislative accountability through effective youth participation in legislative processes, targeting citizens' engagement with elected representatives at local, state and national level.
