Integrating Capacity and Community Advancement Organization (ICCAO) is a youth led organisation founded by vibrant young women who were inspired and motivated by the potential of the young people with the interest in contributing in national development. As a youth led organisation, ICCAO has been designing various voluntary programmes with the fellow youth to support the most marginalised youth who need support in terms of knowledge, access or linkage. ICCAO managed to establish youth platforms at the beginning of 2019. They started a platform called Kijiwe kipya platform where youth meet and discuss various issues specifically related to financial matters.

Project
Our Interest First Phase II project aims at empowering youth by building and strengthening skills, confidence and ability of both young women and men to hold the 2020 elected decision and policy makers accountable. Majority of these leaders have been promising youth during the campaign rally that they will be committed to support youth initiatives and implement youth agenda as per national development plan. Thus, now since they are elected it will be a good opportunity for youth to hold them to their commitment and accountable.
The grant applied to ICCAO will support the implementation of Our Interest First Phase II project. This project among other things will support the organisation to:
i. Building youth confidence: ICCAO aims to empower youth to be and remain confident in a way which increases their skills, knowledge and confidence, and instills a belief that they can make a difference;
ii. Being inclusive: ICCAO aims to empower youth to be inclusive in a way which youth recognizes that discrimination exists, promotes equality of opportunity and good relations between youth groups, decision-makers and challenges inequality and exclusion; and
iii. Being organised: ICCAO aims to empower youth to be organised in a way which youth can bring fellow youth together around common issues and concerns in organizations and groups that are open, democratic and accountable.
