Description

After participating in a 4 month program of bi-weekly webinars on various social justice topics, over 50 youth aged 14-18, from across Canada gathered in Winnipeg, Manitoba from May 6th to 8th, 2022 to share their ideas and strategies for community action and youth engagement.

As a culminating project for the program, the youth were asked to work collaboratively to develop, record and edit these podcast episodes on youth allyship and advocacy.

We are excited to share their work with the world and provide them with a platform to amplify their voices! Enjoy!
