The young people we work with at Changing the Story are integral and authentic partners and the intention of our Young Changemakers Series is to reflect this. The aim of the series is to include and amplify the voice of young people we have engaged with over the course of the project, as well as the voice of other young people in the Global South we don’t yet know about that are supporting and enabling positive change.

If you are a young person (18-30) based in the Global South we want to hear from you!

Do you have an important message you want to share with our network of policy makers and practitioners?

What are you doing to spark change in your society?

Why do you think young people, the arts, human rights education and social justice activism are important?

What do you feel needs to change for your voice to be listened to?

Are you a young researcher or PhD candidate that wants to share your research with our growing digital audience?

If so, we want you to contribute to our Young Changemakers Series. It’s up to you to decide the content and how you want to present your ideas. Why not take a look at our existing blogs, V-logs and films for inspiration and contact changingthestory@leeds.ac.uk with your idea – we can’t wait to hear from you.
