What is a local youth NGO?
A local non-governmental youth organisation operates within a country at local level or in a restricted area (village, town, region) in one of the Council of Europe member states*. Its members and scope of activities are at local level.
Some local organisations have been working with partners from other areas, but unless this partnership is structured and goes beyond ad hoc projects, it should not consider itself as national or international.
