YaLa is more than a network of activists scattered across the region – it is a movement that empowers its members to break down divisions and redraw the map to form a shared community. YaLa connects regional change-makers, allowing them to build their capacities as tomorrow’s leaders while emphasizing core issues such as peace, education, human rights, gender equality and economic development.
YaLa’s flagship project is the YaLa Academy, which is an innovative online institution for the formation of future regional peace leadership through online training by leading experts and practitioners from around the world, coupled with online discussions, activities, events and projects.
