___KNOW ABOUT US

We are a community-based Organization

Centre for Youth and Sustainable Development was founded in 2019 as a non-profit community-based organisation. Our organization was founded to combat the high rate of secondary school dropout among young boys and girls in the Munyenge community. This alarming trend contributes to elevated rates of early pregnancy and childbearing among teenage girls, gender-based violence as well as increased susceptibility to drug abuse among young males.
