YOUTH PEACE AND SECURITY AGENDA
RYCO is launching advocacy efforts in line with its 2022/24 Strategic Plan to promote the Youth, Peace, and Security (YPS) agenda across the Western Balkans. This initiative aims to empower youth, institutions, and civil society organizations and also position RYCO as a central hub for cooperation, knowledge-sharing, and practical engagement in youth, peace, and regional cooperation. To support RYCO's regional mapping of YPS stakeholders and awareness campaigns, resources and tools will be provided to local actors at the CP level through partnerships with National Youth Councils and Youth Umbrella Organizations. This YPS initiative is financially supported by the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the project "RYCOGNIZED-YPS Advocacy Efforts in WB6."
