given the opportunity to understand
organizational issues and develop
their own advocacy skills. It is
essential that we actively engage
youth in identifying their needs,
capabilities and talents allowing
them to be empowered to change
the cycle of their lives.

dedicated to servicing and
presenting their talents to the young

28. Why youth participation?
Meaningful youth participation is
about recognizing and nurturing the
strengths, interests, and abilities of
young people by providing them with
real opportunities to become involved
in decisions that affect them at
individual and systemic levels. This
kind of participation enhances youth
health because it offers young people
a chance to develop important
decision-making and problem-solving
skills, develop meaningful
relationships, and bolster self-esteem.
