Who We Are

Makueni Youth Network (MYN) is a youth-focused  organization that was established in 2014 to empower and support young people in Makueni County to lead  change in social, economic, education, and political spaces. Today, the Network brings together over 100 grassroots youth-led and youth-focused organizations who are committed to building a movement of young people who are able to confront systemic barriers, influence policies, and position themselves as agents of change in Makueni.

MYN believes that meaningful youth development only happens when young people are  empowered, supported, and actively engaged in the planning and implementation of the policies, programs, and investments that affect their lives.

We thus prioritize on collaborations and partnerships that support empowerment, mentorship and financial support of young people to enable them to lead change in all spheres of life.
