SUPPORTING THE WORK WITH FOR
AND BY REFUGEE YOUTH
GRYN supports young refugees to develop their capacity to help each other, lead initiatives to respond to their
communities’ needs and advocate for the changes they feel are important for them and their communities.
Empowering Refugee Youth to Lead and Shape Their Futures
At GRYN, we recognize that refugee youth offer invaluable perspectives and lived experiences that are pivotal to fostering meaningful and sustainable change. By actively engaging refugee youth in leadership roles and decision-making processes, we empower them to advocate for their communities and contribute solutions tailored to their unique needs. Our support enhances resilience, self-reliance, and long-term progress within refugee populations, ensuring that youth voices are not only represented but are central to shaping their futures. This inclusive approach fosters a sense of ownership and agency, contributing to a more equitable and sustainable global society.
