THE PURPOSE OF PHASE 2

THE HERO*INE’S PATH and YL FOR YOU

is to equip caring youth with plenty of concrete ideas, steps and activities to take action for favorite causes, for charity, campaigns, tangible projects, how to activate adults, teachers, entire schools, journalists, city councillors, civil society organizations and more.  

Resources : Phase 2 guide cards; outstanding teenage changemakers’ steps from gentle beginnings to global impact; magic tricks action cards with activities used on their journey, and more; roadmap graphics to sketch own roadmaps on favorite causes; Phase 1 hero*ine poster stories with action guides and links to online profile; YL for You User Guides; feedback sheets.

First, we follow 190 steps from gentle beginning to global impact, and lay down cards of actions used. Groups detect well over 70 simple, common sense tricks that make considerable impact, and hold 80 more in their hands, conveying a solid feeling of “we can do this, too. Anyone can do this. We can involve, equip and empower countless kids to do like today’s greatest hero*ines.”

Next, youth form groups on favorite causes / hero*ines, retrace and sketch their hero*ine’s roadmap using their story poster, action guide, online profile, then present to the group. Finally, they form groups to sketch own roadmaps on concrete local campaigns in context of their city, aligned with hero*ines’ initiatives or other local or global ones, and present to the group. They would have been incapable to do so one hour ago, but now, with literally hundreds of images and activities in mind, it’s easy. Magic!    

YL For You looks at what is needed to strongly empower fired up youth, and to fully unfold youth leadership in society. 

We list 30 topics, ask youth on their ideas, record them, then look at how YL addresses it. We include new ideas as we receive crash coursers’ reports.
