exposures and also provide them opportunities to develop to
their fullest potential !
To INVOLVE young people in all the stages otheir own personal
development and that otheir communities !
Our Principles
- We at Youth Initiative are grounded in our believe that young
people themselves are best able to identify the issues that
concern them, identify solutions and take appropriate actions.
- We recognize that young people are creative and can seek
out innovative solutions; they have enormous potential.
This should be recognized and youth should be given opportunity.
- We believe that with right tools, skills and guidance,
youth people will have a better today, leading them to a
responsible and self-sufficient adulthood.
- We demand that enough investment should be made into young
people so that they can take leadership of their own lives
and that of their communities.
- We are committed towards making a significant contribution
to young people's physical, emotional, intellectual and
social development.
- We encourage young people to utilize their youthful time
and efforts as volunteers that will help in their own personal
development and also give them the opportunity to make positive
contributions in the societies they live.
- We believe that youth involvement in decision-making processes
must increase on global, regional, national and local level,
as this will improve society as well as contribute to the
implementation of the Agenda 21.
- We are interested to coordinate, network or partner for
the same cause with youth organisations and youth networks
at the national, regional and global level.
