Invest in Youth Cy

The idea of the project started as with the aim to focus on the struggles of the youth who were raised in North Cyprus. This is including issues such as Living conditions, education, future concerns and the lack of opportunities.

•WHAT DO I WANT TO KNOW?
Experiences of each individual. If possible different nationalities, this meaning not only the Turkish and Greek Cypriots but also the minorities. Learning what they go through living here. How satisfied are people (youth) with their living conditions? How they feel about education in the country. Are they living abroad or planning to move? If yes, Why? What are their most sensitive concerns about this (being raised in NC)? What are the general greatest concerns of the youth or the smallest one? Change is not working on favour in what sort of specific topics and matters that the youth care about…
•FROM THE PROJECT
Minor expectations; to be able to see and understand the perspectives and opinions of the “others”. This will help me be more objective about the issues I care about. Seeing the opposite ideas. Major expectations; figure out a way to produce and collaborate for the sake of our and next generations’ future but most importantly finding a (creative) way to make our voices be heard. Especially to people who don’t have an idea or worse aware but don’t care.
