Created 7 Local projects supporting youth, which took place in various universities and refugee camps. Some brief of our projects:
- "Mind Matters Workshop Series" in universities, aiming to enhance the empowerment and mental well-being of students. The series includes stress management workshops led by mental health professionals, providing practical tools for stress reduction and mindfulness. Peer support circles, facilitated by trained mentors, create a space for students to share experiences and coping strategies, fostering a supportive community. Skill-building sessions focus on practical life skills like time management and effective communication. The workshop series also features a guest speaker series, inviting experts to share insights on mental health and personal development. By combining professional guidance, peer support, and skill development, YEMH's initiative addresses the holistic well-being of university students, equipping them with tools to navigate academic and personal challenges.
- The "Potential for Everyone" Initiative is actively engaged in fostering self-reliance among youth in refugee camps through a targeted Youth Entrepreneurship Training program. Over the course of several weeks, the initiative collaborates with local partners to impart crucial skills to young refugees. Workshops conducted by trained facilitators cover fundamental business concepts, financial literacy, and market research. The program not only equips participants with practical entrepreneurial skills but also instills a sense of empowerment and self-confidence.
