NYGR supports the work of Voluntary Welfare Organisations (VWOs) and Youth Organisations (YOs) by funding meaningful outreach projects for at-risk youths, public educational programmes targeted at reinforcing positive values, as well as research studies related to at-risk/juvenile delinquency issues. The NYGR funding scheme aims to support these projects through the partial funding of programme costs.
Funding for Youth Outreach Projects
Projects and services related to adventure, arts, mentoring, music, sports and other lifeskills are common youth development tools used by VWOs and YOs to engage youths effectively, and empower them in life. These initiatives could come in the form of leadership camps, workshops/seminars, performances, community service projects, mentoring programmes and so on.
Funding for Youth Workers’ Training
The NYGR encourages the capability development of youth workers and youth developers by supporting good training platforms on youth work such as workshops, conferences and exchange programmes where organisations and youth workers may apply for partial funding.
Funding for Research on Youth-At-Risk
To promote a deeper understanding of youth-at-risk and youth crime issues within the sector, the NYGR also supports research initiatives and studies conducted by VWOs, YOs, youth work practitioners and academics.
