Ba9mah The Yemeni Revolution did not just strike down an old and corrupt political system, it shock off a nation perception of what is possible. Young people present in freedom squares both in Yemen and abroad are very optimistic about the future of the country. These emotions need to translate into choices that influence the political landscape of Yemen. The Ba9mah -Fingerprint- project will assist the translation effort through facilitating a strong and effective youth participation in the election process.

Our Priorities - Our Future The 10-points plan was an ambitious reform plan developed by a team of reformers within the Yemeni government. It promised to restore the government's credibility and to prevent any further deterioration of Yemen's economy. Because of the potential impact of the plan, Resonate!

Welcome to the home of Resonate! Yemen where we work on advancing the cause of participative democracy in Yemen through bringing the voices and ideas of young Yemenis (aged 18 to 35) to Yemen's public policy discourse and through supporting youth action on issues of local and national significance.

To guide the implementation of Resonate! Yemen’s objectives we have developed a three-step framework:


learn_engage_contribute_v3_1


Under the Learn module, Resonate! Yemen will provide access to detailed information, documentation, and resources related to the topic of the projects implemented. This will enable the participants to increase their knowledge and raise their awareness about the topic and prepare them for the next two modules.

Under the Engage module, Resonate! will enable and facilitate direct interactions between the youth and key decision makers in the Government, private sector, or any other sector relevant to the projects implemented. The initiative will also make use of creative techniques to engage the youth with the issue being addressed, such as social media, video documentary competitions, and other techniques.

Under the Contribute module, Resonate! will encourage the youth participants to contribute towards the issue being addressed, either by providing ideas on how the different stakeholders should address the issue, or by taking action by themselves towards addressing the issue.
