We're excited to launch this News & Updates page, a new space where we'll share announcements, program milestones, and stories from our work across Sierra Leone.
The Youth Partnership for Peace and Development (YPPD) was founded in 2005 as a youth led think tank and empowerment organization. Registered with the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development and recognized by the National Youth Commission, we've spent nearly two decades building the capacity of young people to lead on peace, health, education, and sustainable development.
Our work spans four thematic focus areas: Health & Well being, Climate & Environment, Education & Child Protection, and Governance & Peace, delivered through partnerships with government bodies, UN agencies, and civil society organizations across the country.
Check back here for updates on our programs, events, and the young people and communities we work alongside.
