Details

The Rural Youth Reconciliation Initiative (R-YRI) engages rural young leaders aged 18 to 29 years from across the country, building a national network of young leaders realizing their own transformative visions of community building.

Rural teams of Indigenous and non-Indigenous youth leaders work together over three months to plan and implement a community project within their respective communities. Youth leaders are required to attend a training (all expenses paid) at the beginning of their mandate. The community action project is developed as a team, requiring approximately 6-10 hours of volunteer work per week.
