Our Motivation

The organization was founded to enhance capacities of the community and stakeholders to participate on matters of human rights, social justice and nation building.

Young Frontiers upholds and further recognizes the need of enlightening and continuously building reliable bridges of peace towards a developing nation. We believe in an informed and transformed community where young people are pace setters and central in pursuit of positive transformation.

We are guided by the Human rights Charter and stand by “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.”

How & Where We Work

Young Frontiers convenes on a weekly basis that brings all members together to discuss, brainstorm and plan positive activities that could assist in realization of our common dream of raising a responsible and transformative generation of young people.
The meeting sets the activities and agenda that are implemented by Young Frontiers on a monthly basis, making the group visibly constructive and actively involved. We work within Eastland settlements and Nairobi County.
