ONE
STOP YOUTH RESOURCE CENTER
In response to the needs of the youth in
Mariakani, 13th May saw the birth of One stop youth resource center.
It is within our hearts to support growth and empowerment of the youth, raising
their quality of life. This was made possible with the help of PaperSeed
Foundation who are dedicated to strengthening educational opportunities for
children and young people in under served and resource-lacking communities
around the world.
Youths
utilize an integrated approach to youth
development by providing youth with safe spaces in developing Mariakani, where
they meet and access information and resources critical to youth-led
development including sexual reproductive health, entrepreneurship and life skills.
The center offers youth friendly services and contributes to their
socio-economic development.
The youths have understood, appreciated the
center since they have learnt it’s a place where they assess, identify and
obtain information towards life. At the center we offer Computer packages;
screening of movies, training on social entrepreneurship programs to youths who
have business ideas and those have already existing businesses. This presents a
platform to share ideas and network.
Our mission still holds the stand we use
innovative technologies that are relevant in Africa to empower and facilitate
positive change in the community.
The world has become competitive thus
requires a person who is creative and dynamic. The One stop youth resource
center nurtures youth to be leaders, ultimately adding value in the society and
impacting change. We intend to improve the livelihoods of the very many
marginalized youth in Mariakani.
In addition One stop youth resource center
helps in stressing good governance and democratic space agenda. The youth are
provided with a channel to lobby their issues which can make serious
contributions in the society.
“It starts with you, change the way you
see the life and the way you face it. Then make anyone who is around you see
how you approach life.”
