The baton of leadership and development has always belonged in the hands of young people. We understand the responsibility of the mandate laid upon us and rise each day to engage and voice the vision of young people across the continent, as leaders of a generation with boundless potential.
A majority youth led continent with commitment to elimination of disparity limiting all-inclusive development to ensure no one is left behind.
We exist to provide leadership and a representative voice toward building capacity for East African Youth to champion people-centered, inclusive, progressive and sustainable development.
Our Partners are critical to the delivery of the Youth Agenda. We work closely with national and regional governments as well as youth-led/allied organizations to implement initiatives for the youth.
