Suman Shiwakoti's Company Details
Established in 2009, YUWA is a registered, not for profit, purely youth run and led organisation working to promote youth participation through empowerment and advocacy. YUWA was born out of a group of committed youths, unofficially working in this sector since 2005. The initial focus was on to develop leadership skills of the involved youths or to get trained as a youth activist and advocate for change, thus resulting in a wide and diverse array of knowledge, skills and experience in this sector. It led to the realisation of the seriousness of youth issues and the need to act, which, finally took shape of YUWA.The word "YUWA" has its root in the Nepali language referring youth. True to its meaning, its executive body of decision makers include youths between the age-group of 16 to 27 only.
