National Youth Agenda 2011

The National Youth Agenda 2011 is a document that contains relevant themes and proposals for the development of Guatemalan youth. The elaboration of this agenda was carried out through a participatory process where youth delegates from different organizations, municipalities and departments contributed. The participants carried out a process of discussion and validation of the agenda. In addition, the document was consulted with various organizations so that they could contribute with their points of view. After the formal publication of the Agenda, the document was handed to political parties and authorities in order for them to take its content into consideration when developing plans and policies.
