A programme giving young people as many opportunities as possible to participate in dialogues, peacebuilding and conflict resolution initiatives and actions.
Youth Justice (YMCA Africa)
The project reaches out to those ‘at risk’ and involves life skills, personal development, victim-offender dialogues and more.
YMCA Europe Leadership Academy
empowers young people by equipping them with relevant knowledge to live as active citizens, promote social change and strengthen their Movements.
Our three Just World goals
Our Belief
The YMCA believes in the power of young people and communities to promote and advance justice, peace, equity and human rights for all.
Our Pledge
The YMCA will become a global voice in the fight against systemic discrimination, inequity, injustice and racism in all its forms, amplifying the voices of young people and communities where it is active to ensure that everyone’s voice is heard.
