We invite other National Movements to collaborate! Completing the surveys on governance will help us to understand how we shall move forward.
A tangible output (Manual on Governance) will be created as a result of this work.

YMCA Slovakia, YMCA Czech Republic, YMCA Scotland and YMCA Europe are implementing a joint project “Organic Governance and Quality Development”, supported by Erasmus+, Key Action 2 programme, 2 years term.
YMCA Germany, YMCA Kosovo, YMCA Macedonia, YMCA Netherlands, World YMCA, YMCA Ukraine have joined the Team on Organic Governance too.
We believe that the results of this project will be beneficial for many National Movements as this initiative is a part of the Movement Strengthening priority of YMCA Europe and aims to explore the governance sphere so to make it more inclusive and appealing for young people, to provide succession and sustainability in YMCAs as youth organisations.
We are sure that many YMCAs have the capacity to contribute to this area as they already provide excellent continuity and youth empowerment in the sphere of governance.
Please contact us (olga[at]ymcaeurope.com) if you want to join the Organic Governance group or share any best practices in the governance sphere.
The material is created within the project “ Governance and Quality Development” supported by Erasmus+, Key Action 2 programme.
