DIVISION OF YOUTH AFFAIRS
The Division of Youth Affairs in Barbados was established in 1995 as a fully staffed and specific agency responsible for fulfilling Government’s mandate and commitment to youth development.
Now in its 25th year, the Division continues to deliver a suite of services through its Barbados YouthADVANCE Corps, Youth Development Programme, Youth Entrepreneurship Scheme, Next Steps Training Initiative, Pathways Employability Programme and National Summer Camps.
Our vision is “to facilitate the development of confident, proud, self-reliant and creative individuals through involvement in productive activity that contributes to personal, community and national development”.
