Reports from the Community Youth Mapping 2021
Community youth mapping (CYM) is a youth-centered strategy that engages young people to inspect their communities and document the community’s resources, needs, and opportunities.
Most high school students in Kosovo lack research skills and experience, as this approach is rarely integrated by teachers as an approach to learning. Thus, the intervention of the “After School Support for Teens”- ASSET Program, financed by USAID enables students to learn new skills, such as data collection and analysis, report writing, and dissemination of information amongst peers about their findings.
During the school year 2020 - 2021, around 250 students from 15 partner schools of the Program were involved in this activity. They were being closely supported by a school teacher and Program facilitator in performing their research projects successfully.
