The kick-off meeting of the YouMAKE project, a follow-up project to YouLEAD, took place in Nepal from March 3rd to 9th. Due to a rule change, we were able to work with Monon e.U. no longer participate directly and the organization Grenzlos from Vienna took our place. However, since I was in Nepal anyway, I had the pleasure of attending the kickoff meeting and spending a day with the participants.
In my session, we dealt with the Sustainable Development Goals from the perspective of the World System Model and looked into the question of what contribution youth work can make to achieving the SDGs.
The exciting conversations with a lot of exchange on the different realities of life in the different countries led us to 5 synergetic solution ideas, which can be implemented in youth work and which can simultaneously master the challenges of several nodes.
