Are you working with young people who want to shape the future of mental health, housing, or human rights policies? Are you interested in innovative, creative ways to amplify youth voices and impact public policy? Join us for a free series of webinars where we’ll explore how to empower youth, using the transformative power of participatory arts, digital platforms, and legislative theatre.
Why Attend?
We believe young people should be at the heart of policy-making, especially when it comes to decisions that impact their lives. In many places, civic spaces for youth dialogue are being limited, yet young people today face serious challenges:
- Mental health issues
- Housing crises
- Climate change
- Ableism
- Poverty
- Racial trauma
This webinar series is designed to equip youth, youth workers, and educators with the tools and skills to navigate these challenges, participate actively in shaping policy, and make sure their voices are heard. By combining creative methods like theater, art, and digital activism, we aim to strengthen democratic participation for all young people, especially those from vulnerable backgrounds.
Who Should Attend?
- Young people (ages 16-25)
- Youth workers
- Teachers and social center staff
- Organizations working on youth empowerment and democratic engagement
