What is OIYP?
Oxfam International Youth Partnerships is a global network of young people working with their communities to create positive, equitable and sustainable change. Between 2007 and 2010 300 young people will have opportunities to develop their skills, knowledge and understanding and to talk and share with other young people. They will be able to use these opportunities to support their work in their own communities.
Their participation in OIYP will start in April 2007. If selected, they must be available to attend an event in October 2007 in Sydney , Australia .
As a young person, Im taking action to make sure the future is better. In addressing this, I work to empower women and young people because to me, these are the backbone of the future
