Our group of young activists, representing the youth sector, have ambition to work with rural communities to explore and develop new ways to empower youth, children and their families. Therefore our youth centre for sustainable developmenthas taken an impressive step of crowdsourcing solutions to development challenges, calling for support and suggestions in rural areas.
WHO WE ARE
Armenian Youth League (AYL) is a non-governmental organization, established in 2015 by youth workers to promote youth-to-youth communication. AYL inspires and empowers youth to be open-minded, tolerant, and active citizens. The projects created by us provide youth with a transformative, holistic learning experience. Through non-formal and peer-led educational activities we equip the youth with the knowledge and the skills needed to positively shape the world around them. We work to strengthen the outreach of information, especially to marginalized young people coming from rural areas of Armenia and to ensure they are aware of the spaces, mobility opportunities, and tools available to them. AYL implements local, national, and international projects related to the following topics: Intercultural Dialogue, Human Rights Education, Education for Democratic Citizenship, Civic Education, Active Citizenship, Peace Building, etc.
