Pravah

In India when young people’s overall wellbeing was impacted due to widespread social conflict, Pravah was co-founded by a group of 25 year olds in 1993 with the vision to create empowering and safe spaces for youth to address their social and emotional wellbeing and be active citizens shaping their community. By nurturing communities of youth leaders who draw from their own contexts and build their own leadership for self and social change, Pravah has contributed to youth being significant stakeholders in supporting community wellbeing. Pravah has over the years worked towards strengthening the youth development ecosystem in India by capacitating youth-engaging facilitators and organisations, and driving youth centrality by focussing on facilitating youth participation and youth-led advocacy for issues that impact them.
