About Youthshare Initiatives

Location:

27 Avenue de la République, Massy, Essonne 91300, FR

Mission Statement

YouthShare Initiatives, governed by French Law of 1901, empowers youth globally. Our mission is to unite, mobilize, and inspire young people via sustainable, collaborative projects, fostering equitable development. We believe youth drive essential change, focusing on leadership training for high-impact social and environmental initiatives. We facilitate international collaboration through dynamic networks, encouraging borderless knowledge sharing. Prioritizing inclusion, we ensure young people from diverse backgrounds are heard and empowered. Our concrete actions support sustainable development via innovative solutions in education, environment, and social innovation, meeting community needs responsibly. YouthShare Initiatives advocates strongly for inclusive policies with international bodies and decision-makers. We champion social inclusion for disadvantaged youth, ensuring active participation and equal opportunities.

Description

YouthShare Initiatives was born from the profound conviction that the youth of Sub-Saharan Africa are a revolutionary, creative, and present force capable of transforming societies. Our primary objective is to create concrete spaces for young people's expression, decision-making, and action, enabling them to become essential actors in social, economic, and environmental change. Among our flagship programs, we work to bridge the digital divide in rural Africa by equipping young people with essential skills, and we lead the SDG WATCH AFRICA initiative. Our notable achievements include organizing over 50 webinars since our inception, a prestigious invitation to the United Nations in Geneva where three of our members presented our vision for 2045, as well as targeted advocacy campaigns on famine. This year, two of our members also have the honor of representing our association at the Youth Assembly of the World Food Forum of the FAO, demonstrating our continuous commitment and the recognition of our expertise on the international stage.
