Community Driven Development (CDD)
approaches present an effective means to involve young
people in local development decision-making, giving them
voice and influencing power, with benefits for themselves
and their communities. This note highlights a range of key
learning points emerging from years of international
experience with youth banks, and youth advisory committees,
an innovative tool for engaging youth in their communities.
Community foundations hosting, youth advisory committees, or
youth banks see youth in the community as a resource to be
tapped into, not a problem to be solved. They see the best
way for utilizing the energy and creativity of young people
in giving them a large share of responsibility for the
identification of youth needs and opportunities for youth
engagement, selection of priority projects, grant making,
implementation of projects, their monitoring as well as
raising funds needed for the work. |
