Network for Positive Change
1. About us
TDM 2000 International is a vibrant and passionate non-
governmental, non-partisan, non-profit, independent organizationcommitted to foster cooperation across Europe through the establishment
of a vivid network of youth organizations. Founded in 2008 by a group of
young people with extensive international experience in youth work, it
was initially the realization of a dream that in the meantime has
significantly flourished and now embraces organizations from 18 different
countries.
Within our ranks we count with a team of highly qualified
collaborators, with broad experience devising and implementing different
educational projects throughout Europe and other overseas territories.
Indeed, our network is set up by volunteers and professionals with
remarkable expertise in fields such as training and coaching, project
management, intercultural communication, fundraising and advocacy,
lobbying or policy-making.
2. Vision
A world characterized by higher levels of social cohesion, respect for
Human Rights, intercultural understanding, cross-borders cooperation,
youth empowerment, participation and employability.

3. Mission Statement
TDM 2000 International commits to establishing an effective
network of cooperation between youth organizations through which we
shall develop concerted strategies to approach common issues that affect
youth, thus becoming a main promoter of the empowerment of young
people, youth associations and their communities as a whole.
4. Main goals
Challenge the paradigms of ethnocentric education systems and
promote a more inclusive learning process that integrates contents
non conformant to the dominant culture, thus fostering the
development of a bigger respect for cultural diversity;
Advocate for a world where peace, intercultural understanding,
pluralism, non-discrimination, justice, equal opportunities and
solidarity prevail; Create and provide tools and opportunities which may allow
youngsters to enhance their personal and professional development,fostering consciousness in individual capabilities and developingcompetences increasingly required by the labour market, thusstriving to achieve higher rates of youth employment;
Encourage young people to research and thus realize the importanceof their civil engagement and foster the acknowledgement of theirprospective role as main actors of social change, thereforepromoting a process of empowerment that shall lead to a moreactive participation of youth in the life and the decision-makingprocesses of their communities;
Promote strong synergies of cooperation between the public sector,the private sector and civil society through capacity-building,lobbying and advocacy processes in order to ensure sociallyresponsible management and that young people take part in policy-making;

transfer of knowledge and exchange of best practices whilstfacilitating reflection and debate at a transnational level.
5. Strategy
TDM 2000 International is based on the same values and ideals that
led us to its creation in 2008 and thus maintains the compromise of
striving for the empowerment of young people, youth associations and
their communities as a whole.
This does not mean that our network forgot to adapt to the rapidly
changing context that surrounds us. Indeed, we are undertaking
considerable adaptations of our structure so as to more efficiently serve
the aims we were set upon.For the near future we envisage a sustained growth both in the
quality and in the impact of our actions. This invigorated strategy
embraces a strong focus on the delivery of initiatives, mechanisms and
contents that may, on the one hand, enhance the engagement of both
youth and CSOs, while on the other hand, it may also allow a greater
sharing and dissemination of the outcomes of our work.

projects put forth by our organization, thus improving the access of young
people to different opportunities for learning, participating and takingaction.
