Youth
in Development Partnership (YDP) is
an award program that promotes youth
involvement in development and supports
innovative youth projects from youth-led,
youth-run organisations. It is an open
and transparent competition with minimum
cost and bureaucracy. The YDP's goal
is to create a synergy where the youth
of the nation and myriad youth organizations/groups
representing them, come to seek common
grounds and platforms, whereupon their
issues and agenda can be consolidated
and united into a national mainstream
and geared for development through their
innovative projects.
This program is conceived
primarily in response to consistent
demands from youth groups and youth
leaders to mentor youth organisations
and support youth initiatives and capacity
building.
In
an effort to capture the youth talents,
with an enhanced focus on piloting youth
led innovations, this program is coordinated
by Association of Youth Organisations
(AYON).
