PROJECT LOCATION:Mumbai, Volta Redonda
PROJECT LEAD:
Diverse and innovative approaches are required to meet the sustainable development challenges facing cities. The project partners in India and Brazil have independently developed socially innovative approaches to build youth agency, active citizenship and youth as partners in development. These approaches are being used to address the multifaceted challenges associated with youth poverty, livelihoods and inequalities. The project provides the opportunity to ‘scale up’ these practices, embedding them in local practice, and to monitor, evaluate and learn across contexts for wider applicability.
