Youth Promoting Peace: Difference between revisions

Y2P was a youth project, it was a project inspired, designed and operated by young people who wanted to raise their voices for their future. Y2P has developed into a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), an independent, non-politcal and non-profitable organization formed by youth initiatives, lead by the youth and governed by the youth. A highlight in the development of Y2P was achieved in late 1999 when the group secured a USAID grant that was awarded through [[UNDP/UNOPS|United Nations Development Program]] to CNTI: [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]]. CNTI acted as an umbrella organization for a number of bicommunal projects and activities. Y2P had the strong support of many other bicommunal groups and especially the [[NGO Support Center]], which kindly provided space amd infrustructure for meetings and workshops, the [[Technology for Peace]] group which hosted electronically all its activities, the [[Cyprus Conflict Resolution Trainers Group]], which kindly provided facilitation during workshops, the Citizen’s movement for Re-unification and co-existance which provided networking, as well as many others.
