ATTEND OUR TRAINING EVENT ON 29-30TH OF MAY 2013 AT PANAFRIC HOTEL,NAIROBI, KENYA. THIS IS A TRAINING THAT WILL FOCUS ON THE NEW NGOs RULES AND POLICIES.

UN-HABITAT Youth Fund for NGOs and CBOs helps mobilize young people for advocating for youth-related policy formulation; support governmental and non-governmental agencies to respond to youth
concerns; support youth information networks; implement new ideas on employment, governance, adequate shelter and secure tenure; share best practices; promote vocation training for entrepreneurship and employment; and promote gender mainstreaming in all urban youth matters.

NGOs and community-based nonprofit organizations led by young people aged 15-32 years in developing countries can apply for this Fund (This can also mean that if the governing or management board of an NGO has an active representation of one or more young persons between 15-32 years, it can still apply for this Fund-partnerships between adults and young persons are also encouraged).

Population pressures exacerbate many of the fundamental obstacles to sustainable development: degradation of natural resources, income disparity, gender inequality and poor maternal and child health.

The Fund believes that it can uphold women’s human rights by expanding their reproductive health choices, thereby reducing unwanted childbearing and improving the lives of women and their families.
