Sustainability lies at the heart of CICAD’s mission, and central to this ethos is the empowerment of youth for leadership, governance, and development. By investing in the potential of young people and advocating for policies that prioritize youth empowerment, CICAD recognizes the opportunity to not only achieve immediate goals but also to ensure continuity and long-term impact.

Youth Empowerment for Leadership and Governance

CICAD firmly believes in the transformative power of youth leadership. By providing young people with the skills, resources, and opportunities to take on leadership roles within their communities, CICAD fosters a new generation of capable and visionary leaders. Through mentorship programs, leadership training, and capacity-building initiatives, CICAD empowers youth to actively participate in decision-making processes and contribute to governance at local, national, and international levels.

Investing in Sustainable Development

Sustainable development is about meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. CICAD recognizes that empowering youth is essential for achieving sustainable development goals. By engaging young people as active agents of change, CICAD promotes innovative solutions to pressing social, economic, and environmental challenges. Whether it’s through entrepreneurship programs, environmental conservation initiatives, or community development projects, CICAD empowers youth to become champions of sustainability in their communities.
