VOBY - Voice of Bosnian Youth The team initiated a partnership with the local Bosnian NGO Boris Divkovic Foundation (BDF) in 2018, and was supposed to initiate a possible pilot project in 2020 addressing the issues of youth�s apathy towards politics and youth unemployment. Unfortunately the pilot project was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to new personal responsibilities of the original coordinators, a new coordinating team was chosen in Autumn 2021. The decision and identification of the new coordinators were made by VOBY�s original coordinators who continue to assist the new team externally. The new coordinating team is therefore applying for a new preparatory study, in order to secure the best possible conditions for a long-term project. We believe that a second preparatory study is relevant due to the large gap caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as to help the new coordinating team and partner organisation BDF to get to know each other better, and exchange visions and ideas, which will help to secure the best possible outcome for a pilot project.
Youth hubs in Uganda The purpose of the preparatory study is to prepare for a proposed pilot project. The focus of the proposed pilot project will be the training of trainers of the YLDC Youth hubs. To optimize the YLDC Youth hubs, and to avoid pitfalls, we need to address 3 main objectives in the preparatory study: 1. The target Groups (a. the YLDC Youth hub volunteers, b. the beneficiaries) - who are they? What do they need? 2. Objectives - determination of the pilot project objectives and activities. 3. Roles - Implementation of objectives and activities in the pilot - Who? (Youth Leaders? and roles?). Budget will also be a central part of the preparatory study, as we need to clear out the scope of the project.

Ashipti Ashipti Denmark works toward educating young people and citizens of the immense strain Non-Commutable-Diseases have on society, public health care, and most importantly on individuals. With our previous experience in working with partnerships and on NCD prevention in Uganda, we hope to start a new partnership in Ghana. Our plan is to conduct a Partnership-Identification, in-volving a visit in Ghana for approximately  10 days where we will have meetings and workshops with the organisation Ghana FGMSA that we have been in contact with as well as other relevant stakeholders to get a proper understanding of the context and identify other possibilities of future partnerships.   The main goal is to find out if Ashipti Denmark and Ghana FGMSA match in regard to common values, goals and working methods and if so, find a common ground to start a new partnership working with NDC prevention in Ghana since NCDs is an increasing problem in Ghana, this would preferably be in the form of a preparatory study or pilot project. The focus on a new project be-sides NCDs, would be capacity building with both partners involved.
VU Zambia The VU project team was overwhelmed by the experiences during our partner identification trip to Zambia in February 2019. The enthusiasm expressed by the young members of YWCA was inspiring, and we felt highly motivated to establish a sustainable partnership with this group, whose democratic values align with ours. The YWCA Youth Department expressed interest to creating stronger ties with youth from Venstres Ungdom. More specifically, the young people wanted to ensure a platform of communications and a strong sense of coherence across all districts. Based on this discussion, Venstres Ungdom wishes to conduct a second preparatory study in Zambia. The purpose of the trip is to strengthen partnership and jointly work on the application and preparations for a pilot project. The proposed project is to facilitate a YWCA youth convention where the experience of VU, hopefully, could contribute to a successful outcome.

Youth Leading the Implementation of the MRCS Youth Strategy The aim is to enable two MRCS core youth volunteers to involve fellow youths in the organisational development of the youth structures of MRCS by strengthening their capacities in the implementation of the newly introduced MRCS youth strategy on district level. This is of great importance as the youth divisions and youth sub-divisions play a key role in the successful implementation of the strategy.    Two chairpersons from different district youth committees will participate in the DRCY?s Annual General Meeting. Here they will gather knowledge, experience and inspiration on how to engage and involve youths in developing the youth structure of MRCS in a democratic manner. The two participants will afterwards share the learnings in their own districts in order to increase local youth? participation in the implementation of the MRCS youth strategy.   Therefore, the network activity will support the youth work in MRCS as a whole by enabling youths themselves to strengthen their organisation by building strong democratic processes and sharing best practise across local divisions. Furthermore, the network activity will contribute to strengthening the partnership between MRCS and DRCY and will motivate and inspire the MRCS youth to keep building the capacity of their local MRCS sub-divisions.

Empower 2 Educate (E2E) VU and YPC would like to present the Educate To Empower (E2E) project, which aims to improve the inclusion of girls and young women in rural areas through education and economic-generating activities. E2E is about economically and politically empowering youth, females especially, by securing their access to (both formal and informal) education and economic opportunities. Here, the primary target is an interconnected ecosystem at the nexus of which we find girls and young women, who face substantial school dropout rates and scarcity of resources despite their creative potential. To tackle this complex phenomenon, we offer a three-levelled approach: Level 1 (National Educators? TOT Seminar), Level 2 (The Rural Entrepreneurship Factory) and Level 3 (documentary, lobbying and large-scale calls for action).
