About the Organization

The Foundation tries to identify effective programs and methods for young people, to advocate for policies developed for the benefit of children and young people, and to increase philanthropy for young people at local and international levels.

These programs are determined by the foundation to provide a wide range of support services such as vocational education, health education, entertainment, cultural tolerance, environmental awareness, leadership development, conflict resolution, and decision-making skills.

In addition to these programs, the foundation works on raising global awareness on children and youth issues in a wider sense, increasing the skills of youth leaders, and increasing successful practices for young people. The entire program activity of the foundation gathers around the following five themes, and these areas constitute the main drive of the foundation's global youth initiatives.

Priority Areas

  • Innovative Learning: to develop educational opportunities for young people both inside and outside of school. Particular attention is paid to making education responsive to the needs of young people and to the application of technologies that will expand and enrich the educational opportunities of young people.
  • Youth Employment: to help young people develop skills that will improve work and subsistence skills, as well as improve conditions in workplaces and make their first job more positive and productive for them.
  • Life Skills: to enable young people to acquire skills necessary for life, such as self-esteem, effective communication, decision-making, critical thinking, teamwork, and leadership roles.
  • Youth Participation: to support young people to be leaders of constructive social change in their communities.
  • Health Education and Awareness: to prepare young people for a healthy life and to ensure that they make decisions by being informed about basic health issues.

About Application

The Foundation provide grants to its own global network of partner organizations only. IYF believes that those closest to local realities can provide the best support. Therefore, donations are directed to partner foundations/organizations in their global network of donors to identify effective and promising programs and to spread their programs. Each partner organization also works to strengthen the CSO sector in their respective countries.
