The Matassa Masu Dubura project (Youth with initiatives in Hausa language) aims to strengthen the civic participation of young people. It follows on from the Support for Youth Education for Citizenship and Decentralisation (PECiDNY) project, which was implemented in Niamey and Tahoua for the benefit of 600 rights-holders.
Thus, this project, as an accelerator of the previous one, will cover more communes and rights holders. Indeed, commune 2 of the city of Tahoua will be covered and 13 more groups of right holders (4 in Niamey, 2 in commune 1 of Tahoua and 7 in commune 2 of the city of Tahoua).
The additional 4 in Niamey are distributed as follows: 2 groups for the elderly and 2 groups for women and girls.
It aims to promote an environment conducive to citizen participation and community development of young people in Niamey and the city of Tahoua.
The approach advocates the participation of young people who must be at the heart of the change process.
There will also be full participation of the elderly in order to create frameworks for exchange and listening on intergenerational, gender and equity issues.
