A review of the lessons learnt from the ‘Youth Take the Lead’ programme, written by its participants.
Youth Take the Lead is a six month exchange project led by Restless Development in partnership with the Norwegian Agency for Exchange Cooperation (NOREC). It focuses on enhancing youth leadership across three Restless Development Hubs: Nepal, Tanzania and South Africa.
It is a once in a lifetime opportunity where you will meet new people, explore new culture and shape your career as well. One should definitely go for it.
Binayak, YTL volunteer.
Over the course of two years, YTL has had some fantastic achievements. For example, In Tanzania, over 17 CSOs have been assessed, culminating in two sets of recommendations. Homecoming volunteers have also trained almost 200 young Tanzanians in youth leadership, advocacy and rights.
Enjoy every moment, learn as much as you can, create networks. And most importantly make a difference.
