Youth Solidarity Fund Training
October 24-28, 2016
United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
The Youth Solidarity Fund (YSF) supports youth-led organizations that foster peaceful and inclusive societies by providing them with direct funding to implement their own projects promoting intercultural and interfaith dialogue. Established in 2008, the Fund responded to calls for action made by youth-led organizations around the world on the importance of establishing funding mechanisms for youth.
The aim of the training is to consolidate and leverage lessons learned from the YSF project implementation phase and to support the sustainability of youth-led initiatives through skills enhancement, dissemination of project results and networking for partnership and solidarity. The training will also produce a set of best practices of YSF organizations, and guidelines for future recipients as part of a vision for cross-cohort collaboration and mentoring.
