The ENGAGE Youth Theory of Change is premised on the assumption that increased engagement of Indigenous youth at the personal, household and community levels, and an improved local, regional and national system of stakeholders, will result in enhanced empowerment of Indigenous youth, especially young women. ENGAGE Youth takes a holistic approach to empowerment, which recognizes the significant needs of the target group and importance of the broad-spectrum of key stakeholders required to achieve the ENGAGE Youth Ultimate Outcome. The project utilizes human-centered design (HCD) approaches that allow for active participation of Indigenous youth in designing and implementing initiatives, and a systems approach that facilitates identification of root problems and focuses on actions that enhance sustainability through working closely with local actors and organizations. ENGAGE Youth supports Indigenous youth from Regions 1, 7, 8 and 9 in Guyana. The main project partners include government ministries and agencies; non-governmental organizations; and community, national and regional organizations that work with Indigenous youth.<h2>Partner Description</h2>World University Service of Canada (WUSC) is a Canadian non-profit organization with a mission to enhance education, economic opportunities, and empowerment for youth and women. WUSC works with a diverse network of volunteers, students, institutions, governments, and businesses. WUSC is the implementing agency for the Global Affairs Canada (GAC) funded five-year project – Empowering the Next Generation: Agency and Gender Equality (ENGAGE Youth) in Guyana. The ultimate goal of ENGAGE Youth is to enhance the empowerment of Indigenous and rural youth, especially young women, in target regions of Guyana. ENGAGE Youth will support the enhanced empowerment of Indigenous youth, especially young women, through awareness raising and public engagements on gender equality; provision of life-skills education; enhanced access and referrals to social services; access to applied training in relevant employability, livelihood, business development and entrepreneurship skills; and delivery of skills training and responsive grants to enable young people to effectively engage in youth-led enterprises and economic initiatives. Through financial and technical support, ENGAGE Youth will strengthen the capacity of local, regional and national stakeholders to effectively develop and implement sustainable, gender-responsive, and youth sensitive initiatives that address the social and economic needs and aspirations of Indigenous youth, especially young women.<h2>Support Package</h2><ul><li>Support and guidance from the WUSC Volunteer Mobilization Team prior to departure and from WUSC Country Team while on assignment</li><li>Pre-departure training to learn about the volunteering for development program, gain practical skills for living and working in an intercultural context and network with other volunteers</li><li>In-country orientation upon arrival in country of assignment</li><li>Language training in country of assignment, where required</li><li>Modest monthly living and accommodation allowance</li><li>Airfare to and from the assignment country</li><li>Visa/work permit</li><li>Pre-departure medical exam</li><li>Health insurance</li><li>Vaccinations and antimalarial medication</li><li>Criminal record verification</li><li>Vacation leave entitlement</li><li>Debriefing after completion of assignment</li><li>An incredible opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to global development, enhance your professional skills and participate in an experience of a lifetime!</li></ul>
