Youth Diversion Programme Accreditation Submissions

Submissions

Submissions for accreditation will focus on a strand of work, a specific initiative, an intervention, or a specific programme, rather than the whole work of your project or agency. 

The submission must describe the processes and methods of engagement with young people and the impact of the intervention in terms of gains, benefits, and learning and development outcomes. 

Of interest is the ability to customise the work to meet the specific needs of young people in each context, as well how it brought about positive outcomes for the young people involved. 

Theory of Change

You will need to set out a ‘theory of change’ expressing your key ideas, including its understanding of the issue or problem, the goals it is seeking, the specific objectives to be pursued, and the activities that are intended to lead to desired outcomes.

Verifying the theory of change and paying attention to other factors that may influence the outcomes, will provide reasonable evidence about the contribution being made by the intervention. 

Applying

The accreditation process is fully explained in this Guidance Document  and a template for submissions is also available.

Successful submissions will be invited to present their work to a Presentation Panel which will take place in July 2025.

Please send all completed applications to Carol Huguet
