Welcome!

Welcome to the web site of Young Society Initiative!

The experienced youth workers and leaders have realised a need for a regional agency for youth work in Izmir and came together for an initiative to use their experience in youth field in 2005.

The volunteers that worked in World University (UNIVERSIADE) Games 2005 have also gathered to act for a better young social environment in Izmir.

Young Society Initiative believes in empowering the youth for social inclusion. We believe in the universal values of human rights, rule of law, freedom of speech, equality and democracy.

We believe in the importance of using intercultural learning and non-formal education techniques in building future generations. We give our main importance on peace education, human rights education and intercultural education to stimulate the new generations. We try to foster international youth work activities to achieve our aim of a "peaceful world of equality".
