Youth Peer Mentorship Project to Promote Civic Engagement

UNDP is currently undertaking a “Youth Peer Mentorship Project to Promote Civic Engagement” in the area of Mon Repos, Morvant in East Port of Spain.

The objective of this pilot project is to identify young men and women in the area who demonstrate positive attitudes, behaviours and practices, and to guide them through a process of training and growth, eventually providing them with the necessary tools to serve as community volunteers and youth mentors, not only improving their own lives, but those of their peers and the wider community.
