Activism

Activism is about bringing about change in society. Young people are not only engaged, they are often at the frontline of social movements.

This section is dedicated to all those who already engage in activism or would like to become activists. From handbooks on how to kickstart and manage your own activism, to information for trainers; here you can find everything you might need.

My definition of activism is…the practice of addressing an issue, any issue, by challenging those in power.

- Anjali Appadurai
