A Project for the
Empowerment of Young People
/Youth.GIF)
The Swindon Youth
Empowerment Project started in January 2001 and
is funded by the European Social Fund (ESF), the
Learning and Skills Council (LSC), the Partnership
Development Fund, Connexions and the Bahá’ís
of Swindon. The main aim of the project is the empowerment
of young people to assist them in a process of self-discovery,
and help them to develop an empowering sense of
purpose, personal responsibility and community service.
The project has exceeded all expectations for helping
groups of young people overcome their low self-esteem
and placing them on a path to empowerment and becoming
capable of service to others. We believe that once
the potential of this project is fully utilised
it can be a powerful tool for addressing many of
the problems our youth face today.
