Amplifying Voices of Children Digitally
Are you a student between 13-17 years old, passionate about global justice? Are you curious to learn how to drive social change via social media, writing and public speaking? Are you interested in connecting with teen advocates around the world to protect children's rights?
World Vision's new Amplifying Children’s Voices Digitally program will equip youth around the world aged 13-17 to leverage the power of digital connection and mobilization to advocate on global and social issues of their passions.Â
As we bring this program to Canada, the free virtual program will run from the week of September 18th to November 27th for 10 weeks, with one session per week on a school day after school hours. Students will learn about advocacy and campaigning, storytelling, public speaking, mobile journalism, blog writing, child participation & rights, and online safety. They will also get to connect with youth advocates from Brazil and Bangladesh! Upon completion, they will receive 15-20 volunteer hours and a program certification. Applications are open until September 11th: https://forms.gle/9FmnTvKDAdUdESpi7
