MY SPACE
MY CITY
MY WORLD
MY FUTURE
A creative learning programme designed to build the confidence of young people to make their voices heard
The My Space, My City, My World programme is a series of workshops with young people which explore creative responses to questions around personal space, identity, urban environments, sustainability and international issues. Working with creative workshop leaders from across a broad range of sectors, young people are encouraged to explore and express their own ideas about the world around them. The programme seeks to raise expectations and define aspirations, develop community resilience and build young people's confidence in their ability to improve their lives.
