Our Focus Areas
Creating pathways to youth development through education, skills, enterprise & entrepreneurship.
Life Skills Development
YNA invests in the youth development of leading-edge life skills programme to meet today’s young people where they are—and to help them get where they want to go
​
Recognizing that young people live, work, learn, and play in an increasingly digital world, YNAF invests in the development of leading-edge life skills to meet today’s young people where they are—and
to help them get where
they want to go.
Impactful youth engagement begins with the Positive Youth Development (PYD) philosophy that sees young people as assets rather than “problems to be solved.”
​
When we recognize that young people must be the primary drivers of their own development, with adults and systems playing a supporting role, we understand that anything done for youth
without youth runs
the risk of failure.
Engagement
Opportunity
When youth have economic opportunities, they not only elevate themselves, but also their families, communities, and whole economic systems. Our future is a shared one.
