This document is the Module 3 - Facilitation Plan: Meaningful VS. Tokenistic
 
 
What is this training?
The aim of the YouthPower Action Youth Engagement training is to better prepare USG staff, other donor organizations and implementing partners to meaningfully include youth in development initiatives.  The training draws heavily on Restless Development’s expertise in and experience of youth engagement over their 30 years of delivering youth-led programming in Africa and Asia.
 
USAID YouthPower Action designed this training primarily for Implementing Partners of the DREAMS initiative and US Government staff, including USAID, working in 5 countries (Tanzania, Uganda, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Zambia). The DREAMS (Determined, Resilient, Empowered, AIDS-free, Mentored and Safe) Initiative is an ambitious partnership to reduce HIV infection among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in HIV priority areas within 10 East and Southern African countries.
 
Given that the training was originally created for DREAMS implementing partners, you will see a focus on Gender and HIV&AIDS prevention in Africa.  However, the lessons and activities can be applied in almost any context to improve youth engagement.  
 
This training was designed in collaboration with DREAMS Youth Ambassadors. The training resources are now available for download and use.
