Positive Youth Development Starter Kit

Positive Youth Development (PYD) is both a philosophy and a programmatic approach, across all sectors, to support healthy, productive, and engaged youth as they grow into adulthood. To better understand or integrate PYD in your team's work, this resource gives you a great place to start. It is an introductory resource for those who are new to PYD but want to learn about and apply it in their work. 

This PYD Starter Kit connects you to key resources for assessment and design, measurement, and learning. It also highlights ways that projects oftentimes foster youth engagement and different resources to help ensure your project is mindful of youth alongside other aspects of gender and social inclusion.
