Objectives
The project increased young people's awareness of disaster risks and strengthened their roles in disaster management and social solidarity. Through workshops and simulations, it provided knowledge on risk reduction, crisis response, psychological resilience and first aid. It enabled disadvantaged and earthquake-affected young people to act as informed contributors rather than passive recipients. Young people expressed their views at roundtable meetings and the final summit meeting. At these meetings, a policy document reflecting the young people's recommendations was prepared and shared with institutions.

Implementation
The work was structured around two national meetings and a national summit. A total of 76 young people participated in the meetings and worked with expert trainers on preparation, coordination, volunteering, emergency planning and psychological first aid. Fifty participants attended the summit, including young people, municipal employees, AFAD provincial directors, and civil society actors. Young people presented their recommendations and communicated directly with decision-makers. All activities were structured to encourage informed participation and collaborative problem-solving.

Results
The young people prepared a policy document on disaster management and resilience, which was subsequently delivered to public institutions and NGOs. AFAD directors participated in key events, facilitating direct institutional dialogue. Participants expanded their knowledge through seminars, workshops, and online campaigns and shared this knowledge with their communities. Disaster management and solidarity clubs were established within partner organisations and continued their activities after the project. Each participant reached at least twenty people locally, increasing the project's reach and strengthening preparedness at the community level.
