At YAC we are not just DREAMERS;
We are DOERS, fighting to BREAK the corruption chain
The story of YAC
YAC started in 2018 with a small community of talented youth with similar values and aspirations and turned today to a social enterprise with hundreds of youth against corruption in Lebanon and around the world. YAC aims at contributing to controlling and preventing corruption in more innovative and efficient ways through social innovation, collective intelligence, and social entrepreneurship.
Lebanon has lost a lot because of young people who underestimate the impact they can have on the future of their nation. This is why, YAC wants to inform and inspire youth to have their own opinion concerning national challenges, make informed socio-political choices, and move to action towards a more sustainable development.
Our long-term vision is to establish a global network of YACtivists who are courageous enough to create change and break the corruption chain locally and globally.
