Founded in 2012, Youth and Society (YAS) is a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) with the mission to promote and defend human rights and democratic governance in Malawi in the principal interest of young people and marginalised groups. We continue to play a critical watchdog role in areas of accountability and anti-corruption, democratic governance, human rights and citizen voice. Our core approaches include capacity building, public interest litigation, civic education, advocacy, constructive dialogue, research and coalition building.
