The implementing partners of SHE SOARS are committed to meaningfully engaging young people in the initiatives targeting them. Therefore, a Youth Advisory Board (YAB) was constituted in 2022. This youth-led body allows young people to lead as experts of their own realities. The YAB act as a watchdog to oversee how principles of Meaningful Youth Engagement(MYE) are adhered to throughout the implementation of the SHE SOARS Project and provide advice to partners on Youth engagement and leadership, build their skills on how to engage young people in decision-making spaces, and provide feasible solutions to gaps in meaningful youth engagement. Restless Development is seeking to recruit a programme coordinator to provide strategic leadership and operational support to the Youth Advisory Board.
