International Youth to Youth Initiative (Y2Y)
Y2Y is an umbrella non-profit which aims to foster change and to construct an effective environment for
youth participation in the decision making process and community development worldwide.
Unicity of the concept allows "Youth to Youth Initiative" to work on three different levels: with youth,
during the annual thematic International Summit, designed as a platform for dialogue and networking;
with projects under "Youth to Youth Action Hub", a highly responsive, community-driven online
incubator for socially beneficial ideas, projects, initiatives, non-for-profit organizations and businesses
created by youth and for youth; and with young leaders from all around the world, selected to be "Youth
to Youth Ambassadors" who aims to maximize the impact of youth-led initiatives on international level,
promote vision and mission of "Youth to Youth Initiative" and help to raise awareness about challenges
concerning youth.
Armenian Progressive Youth (APY)
Armenian Progressive Youth (Armenia) is a non-profit, non-political youth organization aiming to
support, inspire and engage young people from Armenia and all over the world to develop their social
leadership skills, to take their civic responsibility and to act as change-makers. Through different
projects, initiatives and non-formal education tools we help young people to succeed, ensuring that they
develop the knowledge, skills, attitudes and competences to fit to the modern world. We believe that
progressive, educated, skillful, open-minded and engaged young people possess all the power to
become actors of change in Armenia and beyond because youth is not the future but the present!
