Mission Strategy
The purposes of Youth Cymru will be achieved through the following objectives:
-
Improving
the effectiveness, quality and efficiency of provision for young people
by advising on curriculum and programme matters, organisational structures
and management systems.
-
Organising
training opportunities for youth workers, young people and other agencies
concerned with the social and personal education of young people and
the development of good youth work practices.
-
Promoting
effective partnership with other relevant organisations and agencies
in order that the best use is made of available resources, skills
and experience to respond positively to the identified needs of young
people.
-
Facilitating
the exchange of information, expertise and ideas through the establishment
of effective channels of communication, within Youth Cymru and with
other youth work agencies that share a mutual interest in provision
for young people.
-
Disseminating
examples of good and innovatory practice so that quality standards
are achieved and the work of Youth Cymru receives a high public profile.
-
Identifying
and prioritising young people's needs and responding positively to
them through establishing projects and other appropriate youth work
strategies.
-
Empowering
young people by providing opportunities for them to gain those skills
that enable them to address issues that are of concern to them, and
to engage in decision-making and management systems in Youth Cymru
and the communities in which they live.
The Mission will be fulfilled principally but not exclusively through
Youth Cymru's network of affiliated clubs, groups and projects in
Wales and by partnerships with Local Authorities and other voluntary
sector bodies having regard for the priorities for the National Assembly
for Wales. In all its activities the Association will promote equal
opportunities and will have regard for the principles and purposes
of youth work set out in the Youth Work Curriculum Statement for Wales
and the equal status of the English and Welsh language.
