Youth Development in Southeast Asia: Empowering and Engaging Youth

The Southeast Asia Youth Network (SEAYN) and Asia Pacific Youth Network (APYN) have developed strategic action plans and structures to promote youth development in the region. Through initiatives like the Youth Empowerment Project and Youth Engagement Strategy, they aim to advocate for youth as a whole, ensure equal participation, and encourage youth initiatives. The focus is on creating platforms for discussion, disseminating information, and addressing key youth-related issues to empower and engage youth effectively.
