The National Youth Agency (NYA) will lead the £500,000 programme, titled “Routes to Community Success”, over the two year pilot phase.
Cornwall, Norfolk and West Northamptonshire are three test areas for the scheme, which will also have a strand focusing on digital youth work. The programme’s aim is to gather evidence to inform an approach for boosting the capacity of the youth sector by co-designing it with young people.
The project will see at least eight local organisations in each area put together development and training plans in partnership with young people. Each area will have a community lead alongside 15 local youth ambassadors who will consult with young people in the area and decide what can be developed.
