Education and Youth Empowerment
Who We Are
Founded in 2008, Åtvidaberg’s Kenyaförening supports a culture of children and youth engagement, committed to a lifetime of social change, learning and leadership.
Half the world’s population is under 30, and our mission is to help young people find their voice, take action, and make an impact on vital community issues.
Åtvidaberg’s Kenyaförening is working in partnership with PendoAmani Youth Organization in Kenya, and supports its programs through initiating teachers and volunteers exchange programs, fundraising to meet the needs of Ingemar Ericsson Center in Juja, and networking with schools, organizations committed to engaging children and youth as leaders through music.
We Believe that;
Youth Leadership: We believe youth have a vital role to play in leading social change and transforming their communities.
Youth Empowerment: We believe in working at the grassroot level, supporting youth to build strength and capacity locally.
Responsible Citizenship: We believe social change begins with personal responsibility and is sustained when people are actively engaged in creating the shared future of their community.
