Icare Sustainably leads the new generation to become sustainability leaders

Youth Empowerment

Icare’s aim is to empower young people with great ideas from marginalized communities. By mentoring them, the youth start projects in their own communities considering environmental and social sustainability.

Youth empowerment and leadership is crucial to reach the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. The youth builds the future, it is up to us to enable them to do it in a sustainable and environmental-friendly way.

Icare's objective is to create a sustainable future for marginalized communities

An example of Icare’s current projects

Icare Digital academy

Icare is developing a series of digital resources to inspire and aid youth from marginalized communities and grassroot NGOs to do their work better.

We have discovered many have important ideas, but they lack access to digital sources or funding streams. Icare is mentoring them how to develop a project and to access the global network.

The end goal is to have a digital academy where anyone can learn those vital skills. Currently, we are mapping the needs and capacity of such an academy. Do you want to help us? Fill in the survey below

SDG4Schools & SDG4Universities

The SDG for schools project was launched at Hill School Primary in Eldoret in 2019, Kenya. The project aims to encourage students to be aware, to care, to share, and help support the achievement of the SDGs. At the end of the project, students start their own project to reach the SDGs in their own community. An example of that is planting trees at Hill School Primary.

In 2020 Icare has started work to take the project to universities. The aim is to increase awareness of the SDG among university youth and to mentor them to start a project combining livelihoods and SDGs. The aim is to give youth perspective for employment after university.

Webinar series youth empowerment

Together with a team from South-East Asia, Icare is conducting a webinar series. The title of the series is:

‘‘Responsible youth leadership inspired by the Sustainable Development Goals

The aim is to motivate youth to consider the SDGs when building their careers. Also, we teach  youth involved in NGO work how to do their work best.

Topics of the webinars are finding a mentor, mental health, project development and more. Find a recording of our first webinar together with JCI Dhaka Cosmopolitan on our youtube channel.
