ABKYW works at the grassroots level, believing that the change from the bottom will bring effective, equitable and sustainable results. ABKYW also works to empower young people by building their capacity to achieve greater independence, overcoming constraints against their participation and providing them with opportunities to make decisions that affect their lives and well being. ABKYW believes that empowering young people is the process of enhancing the capacity of individuals or a group to make choices and to transform those choices into desired actions and outcome. ABKYW wants active-social Adi Youths of Arunachal to join in this society for the upliftment of the community as a whole.[1][2]
