Our History

Youth Initiatives is a non-governmental and non-profit organization founded in April 2002 by a group of young Macedonian citizens of diverse backgrounds.

We decided to form this organization so that we could have a vehicle to connect with youth, share our knowledge and experience, build a network and implement our vision.

Our Vision

“To have a country where young people are confident and empowered to fulfill their potential as individuals and as members of the community”

Our Mission

“Youth initiatives supports young people in Macedonia to experience positive opportunities for transformation to benefit themselves and society”.

Our Objectives

To enable young people to realize their personal potential
To connect young people to development processes within their communities
To contribute to the evolvement of effective services and programs aimed at young people
To promote the positive value of youth volunteerism
