Youth Serving Organizations
In 2018, and in order to reach more youth, UNDP Lebanon started implementing the YLP activities through Youth Serving Organizations (UNDP Partners) all over Lebanon. These organizations and NGOs have experience in educating and preparing youth to become successful entrepreneurs, public speakers and better advocates for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Hence, UNDP expanded knowledge of these organizations to better support youth-led initiatives and change-makers at the national level by deepening their knowledge of design thinking and familiarizing them with additional social innovation methodologies and technologies.
