What the grant funds
In support of its CDCS goal, USAID/Tanzania has planned this integrated cross-sectoral youth activity following Positive Youth Development principles to increase the empowerment, productivity, and community engagement of youth, in particular of out-of-school youth aged 15-25. Adolescents and young adults in this age range are on the cusp of their working lives and parenthood and are most poised to benefit from skills-based interventions. This activity will integrate efforts from USAID’s traditional areas of intervention: health, education, democracy and governance, and economic growth to ensure youth are accessing the resources and opportunities that will help them become full actors in their own well-being. This activity will support a holistic youth-centered approach to youth development that is shaped and led by youth and that provides the skills development, resources, and support that youth need to thrive.
