description:

To ensure sustainability of the Y2Y Fund model, the YEF-EU project outsourced the management of the Y2Y to a local grant making organisation. The selected local implementing partner provided support the youth-led organisations (grantees) to effectively implement their projects. It was done through (1) monitoring, support and supervisory visits as well as (2) mentorship. The implementing partner engaged technical mentor monitors (TMM) to assist the grantees in identifying, implementing, and sustaining the projects and community partnerships by the supported youth-led organisations (grantees). Mentorships approaches adopted included the formal mentorship, peer-to-peer mentorship and the supervisory mentorship. The mentorship was able to guide the grantees on institutional strengthening, financial management and book keeping, project management, good leadership and business improvement performance for the projects implemented, while the monitoring visits helped the grantees organisations to understand the grant requirements and what was expected from them and determined the progress of the grantee projects.
