Young people are naturally inventive, creative, and enterprising. Youth Initiatives build on this sense of adventure, and encourage young people to become involved in all aspects of their daily lives, at local level, and also in the wider world. The aim is to provide them with a platform for developing their own suggestions, proposing their own improvements and finding their own solutions. This gives them the opportunity to develop their experience in responsibility, autonomy and involvement, in the context of a common interest. In a world of constant change, Youth Initiatives helps young people to try out their own ideas, to devise their own projects and to carry them out in their own way and so to develop entrepreneurial skills. This fact-sheet presents some examples of the thousands of projects completed so far.
