MAYE KNOWLEDGE & RESOURCES
Is your organization looking to offer youth and adolescents an opportunity to lead or contribute towards the generation of new ideas, solutions, policies, and initiatives?
Are you keen to learn more about how you can improve and do better? Look no further.
We’ve curated a list of resources to help strengthen the ways you meaningfully engage youth?
What does maye mean to you?
That the initiatives that we already carry out are linked to the public agenda, that we have the opportunity to influence spaces linked to scenarios of economic, political and social decision. That when they talk to us about intergenerational justice, we are talking about shared responsibilities, about being able to make informed decisions about our bodies, our lives and our world.
It means having young people at the core of decision-making and all activities that affect our lives. This is best described by the slogan “Nothing for us, without us.” By empowering young people, we are included in developing and facilitating the delivery of policies, programs, funding, and interventions that directly affect the physical, social, mental, emotional, and economical aspects of our lives.
