YUVA Savanne

Local participation across southern Mauritius.

Savanne is situated in the south of Mauritius and includes communities spread across the southern part of the island.

YUVA’s district structure brings participation closer to communities and creates opportunities for young people to contribute within the places where they live.

Through YUVA Mauritius, young people, families, organisations and communities in Savanne can connect with programmes, volunteering, partnerships and wider youth-development opportunities.

Think nationally. Act locally.
Communities move forward when people see themselves not simply as residents, but as participants in what their community can become.

YUVA connects local participation with a wider national network of programmes, volunteers and partners.
