POWER 4 AY Approach: Pathways to wellbeing, empowerment, and resilience for adolescents and youth

The POWER 4 AY approach stems from Save the Children Italy’s 2019-2021 Strategic Initiative on Adolescents Skills for Successful Transition (ASST) built on the five year Youth Empowerment Bulgari (YEB) Programme implemented since 2016 in four countries: Albania, Bolivia, Nepal, and Uganda. This strategic initiative fostered collaboration and exchange among the four countries and created space to share best practices and discuss challenges in implementation. The results of these processes contributed to inform the Adolescent Wellbeing Framework, of which the POWER 4 AY approach constitutes a first interpretation and application in a programme.
