About Me

NGO “Youth Space” was founded in 2014 by students for the development of youth policy in Zakarpats'ka Oblast`. Since 2018, the NGO has secured the role of one of the most influential NGOs in the region, implementing a number of important projects and initiatives, as well as supporting and strengthening local communities.

Each of the activists of the organization has significant experience of public activities in student self-government, youth movements and informal volunteer initiatives. Our organization carried out advocating campaigns on local and even national level, as we are co-founders of National Youth Council of Ukraine and initiators of Ukraine president program “Urban Parks”.

In addition, Youth Space team initiated and organized the implementation of the public budget mechanism in Uzhhorod city and later in other municipalities of Zakarpattya. In addition, the organization is known for creating youth councils and hubs within the region. Plenty of trainings preceded the launching of youth hubs and councils in order to make them sustainable effective. Thus, our activity in youth field covers many municipalities of Zakarpattya.

We started work with Roma youth in 2017 within Ukraine-Germany youth exchanges. We feel the need to involve them into public activism. Also, we implemented the Danube Transnational project “Dream Road” in Ukraine together with other 14 partners from 10 European countries. The aims of the projects were to increase digital literacy of Roma and to mobilize and empower members of Roma communities to become agents of change.
