YCI operates primarily in two regions – Africa and the Americas. In Africa we have been focused on Eastern Africa (Tanzania, Ethiopia and Kenya) and are now expanding to Western Africa. In the Americas we work in Costa Rica in Central America, and Guyana in South America. We also have one project in Vanuatu in the South Pacific. Our projects focus on local youth involvement and aim to address the issues youth face. Depending on the country focus these issues can range from HIV/AIDS education to youth skills training to environmental restoration. The projects are always identified and led by local partners knowledgeable in the local needs and conditions.
