Sharek Partners Alliance – A National Institutional Platform
A National Institutional Platform to Strengthen Youth Engagement in Development and Decision-Making

The Sharek Partners Alliance is a national institutional framework launched by Sharek Youth Forum as a coordination platform and nationwide support network that brings together organizations, initiatives, and youth structures from across Palestinian governorates. The Alliance strengthens collective action, expands community reach, and supports locally led implementation—ensuring youth priorities remain central to development and decision-making.

The Alliance currently brings together 40 partner institutions working with youth, children, and adolescents, united by a shared vision focused on empowering young people, promoting their participation in public life and community development, strengthening governance and transparency, and supporting youth leadership in decision-making processes.

Rooted in the belief that youth empowerment is a cornerstone of national development, the Alliance operates through principles of participation, cooperation, transparency, knowledge exchange, and mutual accountability—building a culture of shared responsibility and national solidarity.
