Leadership and governance with young people are essential in the youth’s holistic growth and development.
To achieve any tangible and sustainable results for young people in communities, youth development programs anchor on leadership and guidance of its city government units.
USAID Opportunity 2.0 currently works with 12 cities across the Philippines supporting local government units and communities organize as Youth Development Alliances (YDAs) to provide quality programs and services for vulnerable youth.
YDAs are how local leaders in government, NGOs, private sector, and youth groups can come together, share resources, and pursue common goals for their community.
