SayPro is shaping the next generation of leaders by promoting youth engagement in community leadership. In partnership with the United States Peace Corps, SayPro offers leadership training, civic education, and mentorship opportunities for young people. Youth learn about governance, human rights, project management, and community organizing. SayPro believes that when youth are empowered to lead, they bring fresh ideas and energy to local development. Programs also include dialogue sessions with elders, government officials, and NGOs. SayPro ensures that young voices are heard and valued in decision-making processes. Youth-led initiatives supported by SayPro create real, visible community change.
SayPro identifies and nurtures youth leaders from diverse backgrounds, including marginalized and underserved areas. With Peace Corps support, SayPro facilitates youth councils, debates, and mock parliaments to build public speaking and negotiation skills. SayPro also supports civic campaigns run by youth, from environmental cleanups to awareness drives on education and health. Through mentorship, SayPro connects young leaders with role models who guide them in personal and professional growth. SayPro’s programs emphasize accountability, empathy, and collaboration—core traits of ethical leadership.
SayPro partners with schools, local governments, and community-based organizations to institutionalize youth leadership. In collaboration with the Peace Corps, SayPro advocates for policies that include youth in community planning and budgeting. SayPro supports youth to run for local committees, form associations, and contribute to policy dialogue. Leadership is framed not only as political but also social—youth are encouraged to lead through service, innovation, and advocacy. SayPro ensures that leadership is inclusive, gender-sensitive, and accessible to youth in all contexts.
SayPro tracks leadership engagement through youth participation rates, project outcomes, and leadership progression. With continued Peace Corps support, SayPro expands youth leadership initiatives to reach even more communities. SayPro is committed to building a generation of informed, active, and compassionate leaders. Through capacity building and opportunity, SayPro ensures that youth are not just the leaders of tomorrow—but the changemakers of today. SayPro turns passion into leadership and vision into action.
