FYF’s First Project in Sinjar Empowers Sinjar’s Youth

Free Yezidi Foundation’s first project in Sinjar, in partnership with Sinjar Academy, is empowering Sinjar’s youth to develop innovative project ideas to sustainably improve the region and facilitate increased civic engagement. In May, the top 10 participants of “Supporting Youth Participation in Civic Action” with the best projects were invited to the Sinjar Academy center. There they presented their innovative projects ideas to a committee for evaluation. The committee selected the top 5 qualified participants who presented their projects at a final pitching event. Stay tuned to hear how the final pitching event went!

This project is funded by USAID.
