Statim Faia Project - Queens Youth Leaders Project (SLB-0030)

The project aims to support young women and young menin Solomon Islands to participate and have their voices heard on issues they care about. Oxfam seeks to do this through a multi-layered approach; firstly, by supporting and strengthening the existing, nationally recognised Youth Council system to better provide services and represent its youth constituency. Secondly, it seeks to work with youth groups who may have never had the opportunity to receive training, mentoring and funding to turn their ideas into projects for change. Lastly, it seeks to work with decision-makers and leaders at different levels of society to enable youth inclusionat the community level as well as within government policy decision-making.
