Using a range of innovative dialogue methods, the ambassadors give the youth an opportunity to discuss and debate cultural differences, religion, family life, politics and tradition – whatever the young people wish to engage in a dialogue about. Further more, the ambassadors conduct local activities within their own countries with the Dialogue tools and activities. ¿ Building the Capacity of Youth NGOs to Foster Adolescent Participation: In this project the EYF partners with the UNICEF. The project will be adopting three main strategies. The first is to build the capacity of the EYF NGOs to be able to act as an effective network that serves in members.
