Amplifying Efforts
Above all, we are activists. We believe in the principles outlined in the Youth, Peace and Security resolutions and create spaces for our voices to be heard.
​
This means, we believe in the principles of collaboration above competition. Together, we are stronger.
Global Coalition on Youth, Peace & Security
We believe we are global citizens. The Global Coalition on YPS gives us a platform to exchange and contribute to movement-building beyond our borders. We proudly contribute and lead in different ways to ensure our collective values shine through.​
​
CCYPS previously served as the co-chair of the GCYPS Communications and "Queering Peace and Security" taskforces.
Americas Youth Advocacy Team
Through the Am-YAT, we collaborate with youth-led organizations in the Americas responding to the need to advocate for the implementation of the YPS Agenda at the regional level. The Am-YAT is an initiative of the United Network of Young Peacebuilders (UNOY).
Government Allies
As a Coalition, we believe in the power of relationships. We leverage these relationships with government representatives to find our allies—including federal Ministers, Ambassadors, Senators, Members of Parliament, and public servants. ​ Strengthening their understanding of YPS is essential to developing close and trusting relationships.
Youth, Peace and Security Fund
We are part of a movement.
Movements need funding to be sustainable. Our members were part of the creation of the YPS Fund in March 2020 to sustain financing for young peacebuilders.
