National Recognition for Young People's Leadership - Case Studies Needed!
21 February 2011
National Recognition for Young People’s Leadership
The Youth of Today project has identified young people taking significant leadership roles and making a real impact on local decision making. The National Youth Agency would like to profile these young people and their stories to give national recognition to young people’s contributions that have made a local impact
If you know of young people who have been involved in leading, shaping and developing services or have campaigned and challenged decision makers we would like to hear from you.
This comes at a time when many youth services and local youth organisations are under threat and our sector needs to profile the excellent work of young people and demonstrate the role of youth work in enabling this.
The NYA will post a selection of case studies on the Global Optimist website, http://www.globaloptimists.org/ we will also give individual certificates to young people recognising their contribution as part of The Youth of Today.
