Youth Leadership and Empowerment

BTD’s focus on Youth Leadership and Empowerment in the selected six countries of Southeastern Europe is to empower a new generation of leaders to act as agents of change in the Balkans through engaging young members of the political elite, civil society activists, and community leaders engaged in constructive dialogue and debate with their communities; and through increasing the knowledge and skills of young people to lead their societies towards consolidated democracies with good neighborly relations.
