Bioregional EDEs for Africa
Description
Social Inclusion is our key tenet for a Sustainable Development plan as rural communities have often been left behind in our country development plans. Through a mix of social and technological outreach, we will identify and localize community needs and all stake holders aware of the Agenda along with our national development plans, we youth best placed to drive effective implementation will be empower in rural communities. GENAFrica Network has members throughout Africa active in rural community development many of whom are youth leaders. CBOs will work together and share their networks with each other this will substantially increase the impact in rural community development.Our goal in the implementation plan is to empower African rural communities to drive the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals through youth-led collaborative initiative that informs effective implementation , monitoring and follow-up and, and advocacy campaigns By working together we believe this road map will work.
Our arrangements will start with forming networks of gender balanced, committed, and country focused teams supporting co-operation and partnerships in implementing SDGs in rural communities.Identifying community based SDG priorities in capacity according to agreed criteria and indicatorsCreate a platform on programme partnership of trainings on SDGs youth-led initiatives.Integrate capacity building through SDG programme mentorship for youth-led organisations and initiatives and conduct community wide initiatives to create awareness, translating SDGs into local languages and into local experiences and activities. that communities can relate to.together we will then identify together with the rural communities what issue is a priority to them in relation to SDGs.Use radio to reach as many people as possible in rural communities, collaborate with stakeholders locally, regionally and globally, ensure an open policy where input from all people at the community is valued, train teams on proposal writing and grant applications, train the trainers; equip the CBOs' youth leaders with skills that they can transfer to the rural communities
