Informal organizing

Informal organizing

Strong and vibrant informal youth movements are critical in terms of mobilizing youth around critical issues, bridging the gap and creating linkages between government, development partners and youth.  Our work on informal organizing aims contributing towards building a youth movement that is anchored around the informal sector, where majority young people belong.   We a) Create individual urgency amongst young people in the informal sector to be able to advocate and respond to critical issues affecting them b) Contribute towards strengthening of youth informal structures and institutions to effectively articulate young people’s development priorities at community and national level  and c) Promote responsiveness of leaders and policy makers to young people’s social, economic and political demands and rights.

 

We coordinate informal groups like Youth For Uganda and work with informal youth formations across the country and beyond.
