Catalyzing Youth Potential: IREX’s Approach to Youth Development

 
IREX increases youth’s abilities to better position them for work and participation in society, improves opportunities to help youth apply and strengthen those abilities, and supports institutions to become more responsive to youth needs while empowering youth as forces for positive change.

With these abilities, opportunities, and responsive institutions, youth can be protagonists who drive positive change in their own lives and in the lives of their peers, communities, nations, and beyond.

A diagram with three components that produce a positive result: increasing abilities + improving opportunities + responsive institutions = youth as protagonists. Each component has three to five ingredients, and the result has five attributes.
