The Programme
The project “Power in YOUth: Enhancing visibility and awareness of disabilities in Cyprus through active youth participation“ is a dynamic European project implemented by the Cyprus Youth Centres Association and its members with the main objective of informing, educating and raising awareness among young people about sensory and motor disabilities!
The objectives of Power in YOUth are:
- Raising awareness of young people living and working in remote areas about anti-discrimination.
- Strengthening young people’s awareness and capacities regarding accessibility and inclusion issues.
- Developing ideas and proposals for equal opportunities for access and participation of people with physical and sensory disabilities through the active engagement of young people with policy makers.
- Breaking down stereotypes and discrimination around sensory and mobility disability issues among young people
The programme focuses in particular on young people living and/or working in remote areas with the main objective of informing, educating and raising awareness about sensory and mobility disabilities, providing valuable knowledge and skills.
Through training programmes, workshops and information events, young people are equipped to become pioneers in promoting social solidarity and inclusion.
