What does GYD mean in DEVELOPMENT

Global Youth Development (GYD) seeks to engage, equip, and empower young people across the world through meaningful social projects and events. GYD works with stakeholders - youth organizations, governmental bodies, international development organizations and foundations - to drive strategies for youth empowerment.

Global Youth Development works in partnership with various stakeholders to design project-based progams that aim to develop the skills, knowledge and abilities of individuals in disadvantaged communities. Through these programs youth gain access to educational resources and higher education opportunities. Additionally, GYD collaborates with partners on campaigns that advocate for equal rights of young people in various parts of the world.

Some examples of programs offered by GYD include mentorship initiatives, vocational training courses, leadership development workshops; as well as other capacity building initiatives such as financial literacy and sustainability projects.

In addition to providing youth-focused educational opportunities, GYD also provides dedicated mentors who provide guidance throughout their program journey and beyond into post-program life; along with career guidance services such as resume critiques and job interview preparation sessions.

Young people from all backgrounds can benefit from GYD's services so long as they fulfill the requirements for any given program or initiative. Programs often prioritize applicants from low income families or those living in rural areas but also take into consideration applications based on individual merit or relevant skills/experience.

Yes! After a person finishes one of our programs we will do our best to follow up with them on an ongoing basis in order to monitor their progress towards achieving their goals set during the program period. Furthermore alumni also may be eligible for internships and job placements under certain conditions

GYD currently operates globally but specifically focuses on regions where current economic conditions limit young people's access to quality resources and education opportunities such as Latin America, East Asia & Pacific Islands, Sub Saharan Africa, Europe & Central Asia among others.
