Somalia, the Somali Youth for Peace and
Democracy (SYPD) is a non-profit, non-
partisan, non-governmental, youth led

The goal of SYPD is to create an atmosphere in
which Somali youth can express their voices,
involve in the process of peace building, and
reconciliation and in political decision- making
procedures that affect their future.
SYPD is committed to establish youth empowerment
programs that are dedicated to social change and
struggles to harness Somali youth energy and
passion to build a democracy oriented society
that promotes positive values such as; peace,
democracy, equality, good governance and justice.
