“Young Agents of Change” is a non-profit, non-governmental and non-political Ukrainian youth organisation. The organisation`s mission is to shape an active and responsible community of young people for their personal fulfillment, networking and promotion of civil society. The vision is progressive and responsible youth that takes active part in the social and political life of Ukraine and Europe.

Despite the ongoing war against Ukraine, the NGO and its staff remain steadfast in their mission to promote youth participation in local communities. We are actively working to rebuild and restore youth engagement in conflict-affected areas and support young leaders` efforts.

The organisation's strategy is based on inclusive participation, with a focus on young people from rural, disadvantaged, and post-conflict areas of Ukraine. We promote tolerance, equality, and solidarity among Ukrainian youth in all our activities.

Since its founding in 2017, the organisation has coordinated and implemented more than 65 national and international training and development projects to promote youth participation in various fields.

We also run Erasmus+ projects and have proven experience in all stages of project implementation, from the application process to dissemination and reporting. Over the past few years, we have co-implemented more than 50 Erasmus+ and other exchange projects, in which over 600 young Ukrainians have participated and received necessary support.
