Youth Engagement Program
MERSAT
The Mersat project, implemented with RO'A's local national partner Sustainable Change for Development (SCD), aims to equip Palestinian youth with the skills, knowledge, and awareness needed to actively engage in their communities.
The project consists of three phases focusing on leadership, civic awareness, conflict resolution, and advanced advocacy — building a new generation capable of shaping their own future.
