About this event
Now more than ever, we see a need for youth and adults to build stronger practices for working together. But how do we do it? How do young leaders take their place in leadership? How do we build allied relationships with adults and hold them accountable to our partnership?
In this space, we will engage with young leaders to help identify key factors of equitable youth-adult partnerships and develop tools to activate relationships with adults that enable emerging and existing leaders to work side by side.
We Will:
- Explore the importance of youth-centered leadership and examine the role of adult partners
- Develop tools to create a foundation of equity and accountability in your relationships with adults and peers
- Develop skills to amplify and center youth voice from where you are
- Explore opportunities to transform power dynamics and activate youth leadership within institutional structures.
This free workshop is open to high school-aged youth.
