Youth Fund for Innovation and Social Action in Latin America / the Carribean
July 11, 2008 - 03:19 PM

hrough an innovative partnership between the Inter-American Development
Bank and Microsoft’s Unlimited Potential Community Technology Skills, the
Youth Development Program for Innovation and Social Action or "Youth Fund"
was established as an instrument to effectively respond to the needs of
young people in the Latin American and Caribbean region and to promote
their participation in the development process. The goal of the Youth Fund
is to support innovative initiatives that strengthen the capacity of
low-income youth in both rural and urban areas to increase their potential
for employment. The Youth Fund is the first collaborative project to be
executed under the agreement signed between the IDB and Microsoft to
facilitate access to information technology in the region. The Second
Contest for Youth Initiatives will close on 5 May 2008. For more
