Youth 360 is a facilitated process consisting of three steps (1) Collaborative conflict analysis (2) Project design and participatory grantmaking, and (3) Youth-led project implementation. Youth 360 changes this by providing youth groups with holistic, 360°, support in a process where young people themselves are in charge. However, they also often struggle to access appropriate support and funding. Young people are often at the front lines of responding to violence and conflict.
