OUR STORY OF CHANGE

Building Peace Through Participation

YRDP creates safe spaces where young people from refugee and host communities learn together, play together and become leaders within their communities.

Through sport, dialogue, education and youth-led initiatives, participants strengthen relationships, develop confidence and contribute to peaceful coexistence across diverse communities.

Young people are at the centre of the change.

We believe meaningful impact happens when young people have opportunities to participate, build relationships and take positive action in their communities.
