MINU

MINU Asociacion Civil is a non-profit, non-governmental organization dedicated to the development of programs that promote the inclusion and participation of youth in the society. The purpose of our organization is to create a place for developing and carrying out programs and educational projects aimed to promote mutual respect, democracy, diversity and a critical vision of the reality, as well as to provide advice in participative and innovative methodologies to other organizations, and to contribute to the development of public policies that include the active participation of the youth in the society.

Our work areas are:

• Educational Programs (Model United Nations, Add your voice to road safety, Model of the Argentinian Congress, Linking realities in the classroom, Put music to your rights!)
• Development and Advising in participative methodologies of debate.
• Technical Assistance and consulting on youth public policies.
• Foro PoliTICs #Youth (Joint Initiative with Foro PoliTICs which aims to bring young people to the debate on the impact of ICTs in politics and social change).

MINU, founded in 2003, is a member of several NGOs networks including: Advisory Committee of the Argentinian National Agency of Road Safety, Argentine Network for International Cooperation, Federal Platform of Argentinean Youth.

Our staff is 100% composed of young students and professionals.

MINU is very motivated to cooperate in the implementation of the IMPACT youth project as it will be an excellent opportunity to share the experience of our program "Add your voice to road safety" and to learn from other´s experiences and points of views in both EU and Asia. It will also strengthen the cooperation between youth organizations from three distance regions (Europe, Asia and Latin America) that don"t have fluent connections and cooperation between them. In cooperation with the Ibero-American Road Safety Observatory, MINU will organize the final project meeting as a conference in Buenos Aires.
