Plus, learn about the roles of adult allies, plenty of tools and  opportunity to get started : activate yourself, youth, workplace, schools, media – using simple, swift steps, enriching your daily life + adding purpose to your profession. Welcome to the most beautiful and rewarding life that we can imagine for adults in these special times!

We all wish to see Youth Leadership florish in our cities, schools, regions, all over Earth. And we are millions.

That’s a great casual way to approach it!

Take the steps. It coaches you to be a precious, multi-skilled changemaker in the community

Walk through it once. After that, you are skilled and equipped to freestyle and recognize opportunities.

No YL crew for face 2 face workshops in town?

Not a problem!

We have this ace online crash course that guides you to unfold your superpowers in a matter of days and weeks.

Have a refreshing snack and unlock your utterly surprising superpowers! 

A few words before getting started.

Yes, we know, people want to attend a face to face meeting. But look, we cannot be everywhere right now and there’s no time to waste. Hence, for practical reasons, here’s an online crash course for you to take in the comfort of your home, your garden, on the beach.

We have designed this course and are absolutely satisfied with it! It even has advantages, so let’s use them! For instance, you can fully immerse yourself in the music, stories, latest news from hero*ines you love. See, this kick off phase is all about you, not us or others. It is about your feelings, your vision, your reflections, your dreams, ideas, skills, relations and opportunities to get active.

Get to now changemakers, their initiatives, our tools and start swiftly, with flying banners. You can change lives already today. This week, you will begin to meet other people and start sharing views and ideas. You will create community this month. Easy.

You will notice by the end, how your worldview will have changed. Nothing spooky about that, just how the merry changemakers you see think and feel. If we consider this to be of “pedagogical value” for school students, we have to good reason to make the experience ouselves, huh?

Trust me, we are with you in spirit. The via feedback forms, social media, and soon also “live”. You may actually be the one to deliver face to face workshops in your community soon. It’s up to you.

So, take your heart in both hands, and dive in by yourself. This course is meant to upgrade your life, and those of many others. It is simple, yet very powerful. Commit, like you commit to watching your favorite movie. Sound on, anyone else on, do disturbance! Follow the guidelines, respond to questions (just as you would in a face 2 face workshop). No cheating, or you spoil your learning. You get as much out of it as you put into it, and the world deserves your best!

I look forward to hearing of your experience, and seeing you on the other side.

What if more caring folks join you?

Imagine 10 adults in your town doing this. Imagine their reach and impact, within a month. What if it is 100?

Imagine 1 student per class joins a changemaker student club. It makes how many members at a school? 20, 50? How many with a club at each school in town? What if 3 per class join in?

You know they these caring people exist. Your mission is to reach them.

PHASE 1 – DISCOVER YOUTH LEADERSHIP

The most beautiful and spectacular novelty … maybe in history. Definitely in the history of our lifetime!

You love young changemakers, action clubs at school, and positive stories in media.

There is so much more to it. You’ve seen nothing yet, least of your powers to amplify it.

So, get ready to be surprised, tear up, and feel your heart shine.

1. The amazing phenomenon of teenage changemakers aka YOUTH LEADERSHIP

2. YOUTH-LEADER tools, tricks and services for you

We’ll see you return with your hands full of tools, and with many stories to share. Enjoy!

Visit the Online Exhibit.

 

If you’ve only been following normal news media, you know as much of youth leadership and changemaking as you know of Gothic or African Heavy Metal music. One, two, a handful of impressions, nothing, really.

The real, and spectacular innovation of our century is not a new car lacquer, hairspray or electronic gadget. It’s individual and groups of ordinary caring people evoking considerable changes, with ripple effects in the community, changing lives, laws, industries and learning culture. That is what you want, so take some time to learn how to kick this off among youth.

The Exhibit is designed to give newbies a profound, wide scope introduction to youth leadership, its potentials for humanity, one’s own role in it. The mutimedia mix of stories, photos, videos and music makes it a fun, vivid and memorable experience.

Observe our tips and get started!

If you’re super on fire to know everything and awaken your inner Hero*ine, take the Tutorial now (step 6), and come back here to follow up with first activities.
The Exhibit and the Tutorial are the two long stages of the Crash Course. They are designed to take you deep into the world of changemaking. This is not a quickie. You re entering new world, seriously, like Middle Earth in Lord Of The Rings, like Harry Potter’s Hogwarts School Of Magic – with veritable hero*ines, beautiful beasts and mermaids, for real. It can become your world, rewarding you with powers to bring about good, far-reaching changes you wish to see for people and planet.

Commit fully,

  • and you will have a woldview-changing experience about youth, your own power and our common chance to upgrade to able, active, caring citizenship and create an awesome, beautiful future, fast!
  • use the feedback and input forms, the action options, to gain awareness how others can best experience this exhibit and turn their newly found passion into action – at libraries, schools, the workplace, public space, at events…
  • and you learn to wield a powerful tool to create long-term presence to large groups, brought to life with an info stand, your presence, and amplified with music, videos, FUNdraisers for favorite hero*ines, local projects and more

so that you do not just browse information, but experience a life-changing, empowering training.

You’ll get out of it, what you give into it.

So, prepare like for your favorite movie. Get a drink, some snacks, lock the door, lights out, sound on, dive in and enjoy!

Feedback Form - Let us know of your thoughts, feelings and ideas!
(If you have given feedback on the exhibit or tutorial page, you need not do so here again)

Emboldened by this can-do feeling,

let’s remember why we’re here.

Are we on the same page?

Then let’s create the world our hearts wish to see, implement solutions and focus on empowering those endowed with superpowers, who we can reach daily, for ten years:
our young generation at school.

These unpleasant facts are the reasons why I have set up YOUTH-LEADER. No one wants these horrible things to happen, and we have humans showing us how to solve them. People respect changemakers for what they do, but do not help them, and completely forget to boost such teenage hero*ism in their own community and schools. Worse, schools may even forbid youth-powered projects, because they fear to lose control, that youth bring up unpleasant topics. Also, many young people lack the knowhow, confidence and partners to get things started. 

What we need is opportunity for all young people to grow up with the time, tools and opportunity to bring about the big changes we need to take our societies to the next GOOD level. The best, and only, place and time to learn this for our entire young generation is school. And, in fact, it is school’s official purpose to make it possible. Many people are not aware of this, n once we re-awaken teachers, students and parents to it, things begin to get moving.

That is why we not only offer activities and tools but the arguments, methods and support for making youth leadership omni-present in our daily lives at school, in media and public. You’ll read and hear this from us repeated over and over again, because until that is done, nothing can get better. Let this repetition help you memorize these “magic spells”, as to amplify the reach and impact of your “magic wands”, your projects.

So, here’s what YL does and what makes it so special, so that you may achieve your dreams for people and planet.

  • news media – reach many, using our stories, photos, add your passionate call for action

  • group presentation – LEVEL UP! crash course session #1 with family, friends, workmates or a school class
  • market stand – with FUNdraiser and flyers

Whoupla! We may have a team together all of a sudden!

We are available to help.

Frankly said, while our media and magic wands, it needs cearing people to wield them. 

To really activate people, it needs conversations.

Many people get inspired by media, but they do not yet follow up on it and understand how they can be part, that they are needed, and how it enriches their lives. This combination makes things happen:

  • knowledge transfer
  • spirit transfer

YOU are the ultimate medium. 

This is why it’s so important that you know youth leadership, your favorite hero*ines, y/our tools, and simple instant actions to offer; from the poster exhibit. And, that your Inner Hero*ine is activated; through the tutorial.

Let the stories, images and videos speak for you. We use the book, and the cardgame. It’s a micro book and perfect pocket companion.

If you are the talkative type, or a teacher, you can also run our Crash Course sessions; like our Volunteers; to prepare, take the Tutorial.

By this time, your worldview on young people, citizen power, school, your options to make relevant contributions has profoundly changed. Your knowledge of youth leadership, spiced up with own feelings and anecdotes is far beyond … anyone else’s in town.

You know that youth leadership at every school is a game changer for our societies, people and planet. Craig has crews at 16,000 schools. This means it works. That conviction is rock solid. It guarantees a positive future. Now, the only thing to do is to make that happen in your region. 

Before next steps, let’s look at your allies to connect with.

PHASE 3 – DETECT HIDDEN ALLIES

You can unfold many untapped potentials. Let’s use them all!

The good thing about you not having activated your workplace and city yet is … that you have a lot to discover, to experiment on, and to enjoy.

Let’s look at your “spheres of influence”.

Activate your Spaces

YOU’LL BE SURPRISED HOW MANY THERE ARE

cafe, office, parks, waiting rooms, organic stores, farmers markets, community centres, public libraries, … each is good for flyers, posters and magazines.

Here are two major allies that you need to know more about:

Activate your Professions

BELIEVE IT OR NOT – THERE’S ENORMOUS POTENTIAL

  • empower global and local youth
  • having more fun at work
  • add meaning & purpose to your profession

 

AS CITIZEN (anyone)
YOUNG ADULT
PARENT
TEACHER
JOURNALIST
ENTREPRENEUR
EMPLOYEE
CUSTOMER
BOSS
CO-WORKERS
FARMERS
CITY COUNCILLOR
ORGANIZATION
WEALTHHOLDER

Live all your Roles

STUDY THEM ALL. CHOOSE YOUR FAV’S 

Browse the others also. That will give you ideas how to help, serve, connect and collaborate with them.

Activate Key Allies

Everybody is important, but some people have especially important functions for uplifting our society. Hence, they are among our priority allies to inform and activate. The good thing is that they all have good aspirations, and benefit from in the short and long run from youth leadership stories, programs and an active citizenry. What’s needed is to show them what’s available, possible and how it benefits their work. That’s simple, and we have brochures to pass along. For now, learn how your fellow citizens in these spaces tick.

Teachers

love hero and solution stories.

They do not know what’s going on in the world of innovation and changemaking, just like you didn’t. There’s good people looking for this! Help them! Tell them what we have for them. Inspired youth groups are their dream come true! You may make new allies and soon team up!

 

Schools

ARE NOT CLOSED as they used to be when you were at school.

1. Educational guidelines have developed big time, it’s just that you have no clue what the good professional and ministers and UNESCO are doing. What your many local caring teachers need are the genius tools, tricks and partners to make it real and to awaken to the miraculous powers of Youth Leadership already activated at 16,000 schools. Help their live their dream and discover them as wonderful friends!

2. State schools can do what they want, they just have to justify it. In Germany, headmasters have added the subject “joy”, others spend each friday in the school forest, run an interdisciplinary program “school as state”, have dropped the blackboard, torn down walls and turned classrooms into learnscapes, dropped the bell and teaching altogther. Forget all prejudice, and just install changmaker student clubs, and, next, the YL Curriculum. Informal, by student clubs and a handful of caring teachers.

3. There’s three good teachers at every school. The social one, the green one, the wild one, often a Phys Ed teacher. They love having a young Gryffindore crew at their school to uplift their days. It’s their ideal of education come true. Find one, the others will be found.

2. Good teachers are priority #1! They are the most important ally of our young generation, because they decide if they can grow up with it daily, or not. In comparison, journalists, politicians, rich people and celebrities are irrelevant. Youth leadership has thrived at schools without celebs and riches. But never without caring teachers.

Hence, #BeWise #BeGenerous and seed Media Packs to schools, and #BeMoreAwesome : take the Tutorial to learn to give Level Up! kick off sessions for the Crash Course (that students can self-organize). Together, we can ACTIVATE YOUR CITY.

Journalists

love hero and solution stories.

They do not know what’s going on in the world of innovation and changemaking, just like you didn’t. There’s good people looking for this! Help them! Tell them what we have for them. Inspired youth groups are their dream come true! You may make new allies and soon team up!

The media

are not bad people. They are just inhabitants of the Unsustainable Civilization, like everybody else.

They have boring habits programmed to reporting on who, what, where, when, and staying detached and impartial.

But, for years, pioneers in solutions / constructive / positive news journalism and restorative narratives have been changing this.

There exist caring journalists everywhere. If you have paid attention, you have noticed positive-spirited articles on young changemakers recently. We can build on this, big time.

love hero role models. They need… stories, images, involvement.

Here’s an example. UN Day of Water

Public Libraries

love our resources

Public servants

have a social mission.

THERE IS PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY.

That’s great news! There is an incredible lot that you can do, and it works fast.

Now let’s apply this knowledge and step out into the community. Yay!

PHASE 4 – BE AN ACTIVE CITIZEN

DO YOUNG PEOPLE IN YOUR CITY NEED HELP? GET ACTIVE.

Bolstered and emboldened by your first positive experiences, let’s start moving things!

These are EVIDENT. 

Given our powers and solutions, we can expect this from all us citizens.

You love young changemakers, action clubs at school, and positive stories in media.

Now learn everything about it, and how you can boost it.

 

 

The Tutorial is like a multimedia Exhibit enhanced with guided questions, tasks, feedback forms to reflect, digest, integrate, understand how other people get inspired, how other people can use this for their profession, and to think ahead. This is deep, personal, powerful and transformative.

We use this IMMERSION for training our Volunteers. 

As you can imagine, our volunteers who present to newbies in class and at events can not be the boring type.

  • Now, we really want to awaken your Inner Hero*ine
  • you’ll be learning practical stuff, magic tricks
  • you’ll have a very good understanding of how and where to make moves at schools, workplaces and more in your region
  • helping you #bemorewesome, hehe

This is more thn a training. It is an INITIATION. A quest to meet your Inner Hero*ine, to awaken together and team up to live your dreams for the world you were born in at this crucial time. This may well be the most important quest of your life. As with lovers, give your most precious : your lifetime.

It takes 2-3 hours. View the Tips

The Exhibit and the Tutorial are the two long stages of the Crash Course. They are designed to take you deep into the world of changemaking.

If you carelessly, superficially browse text, pics and clips, you do retain a little info on “who and what”, but you do not learn anything relevant. You still won’t really know what we do, what youth feel, how teachers and journalists benefit, and what is possible for your city’s and country’s future. You will get only 2% of the experience.

You see … what differs teen and adult hero*ines from the many idle citizens, is that they are so immensely inspirational. And this SPIRIT is a FEELING. Hence the secret is their inner alchemy, how they think, how they feel. Obviously, they feel strongly, they feel love and pain, they see  solution and they have determination to see it implemented. Because not doing so would be stupid, heartless, shameful and petty. These hero*ines obviously see “what is broken”, know “what needs doing”, know “what works” and experience “what success in healing the world feels like”.

This mind- and feelset exists in each of us. Even adventure novels, mere TEXT, a mere PAINTING unlocks noble, virtuous feelings in you, right? Hence, spending time in the company of hero*ines, even via media, will dust off your noble changemaker feelings, to live what you truly care for.

Commit, and “walk alongside these hero*ines” in the tutorial, and you get to

  • feel the spirit
  • know the hero*ines’ stories
  • memorize most touching moments, to tell others, amplified by your tears, love and laughter
  • feel new music that conveys feelings of the Change Generation
  • find your own focus passion, causes and mission
  • spark ideas and vision who and how to activate people and stakeholders around you

You will also understand, based on your own profound experience

  • how diverse teens and adults experience the videos
    what feelings and dynamics it sparks in them
    what questions in sparks, and what to respond
    how to serve, amplify, activate their experience
    so they can turn passion into action and follow up

You will understand good teachers, journalists and city councillors

  • how they think, their good aspirations
  • how they benefit
  • how you can activate them
  • directing them to concrete activities, projects and partnerships
  • to upgrade the most important yet idling, failing spaces of your society : schools and media!

You will employees and entrepreneurs

  • how they benefit
  • how you can activate them
  • directing them to instant opportunities and tools
  • to upgrade the workplace and public space, where all adults meet daily

This means you will

  • experience worldview shift on youth, citizen and your personal power
  • become aware of your own new unlimited opportunities
  • have your hands full of tools
  • know there is more to discover

This is plenty, and precisely what the world needs.

But it takes FEELING it. “To be the change, you have to feel the change.” – Earth Guardians

This is why a few minutes like browsing social media don’t cut it. You have to take time off, switch off the boring broken world around you and enter ours, the world of hero*ines, who achieve! Because it’s like diving into the Lord of the Rings or Hogwarts universe. And then, magic will work its way, as it has in thousands of others.

Does your Heart hurt, thinking of the suffering in the world?

Well then, level up your skills to bring your people alive. And as you heal the world, your heart will heal. How’s that for a genius law of nature?

You’ll get out of it, what you give into it.

So, once again, prepare like for your favorite movie. Get a drink, some snacks, lock the door, lights out, sound on, dive in and enjoy!

If you’re the adventurous type, walk into it ike into a sacred initiation in AVATAR, not knowing what to expect, but know that your elder siblings went in and returned a badass WO/MAN, a Guardian of Life on Earth endowed with magical powers, with a piercing gaze and no longer spending time with the silly ones gossiping about bullshit.

Actually, these are also quite down to Earth, huh?

The only difference is that we don’t act as citizen but as professional, in the frame of a bigger institution. And this of course, boosts reach and impact and community. It’s super fun, too, since, really, when do you get to introduce societal innovation? So, rejoice and be bold. Just download the tools and wield ’em. In each case, you’ll see results after days or weeks, and can build on it or let it go.

PHASE 6 : UNFOLD YOUR CHANGEMAKER POWERS

FREESTYLE FOLLOW-UP

The future is bright wide open. Everything is possible.

Your new experiences, insights, encounters and relations will give rise to ideas for high impact collaborations that we cannot foresee now, because they grow from your context and journey. It can be strong things like YL Clans, YL Schools, and local implementation of model solutions powered by young and adult changemakers. One thing is for sure, it gets ever bigger and exciting!

All these things you have been able to initiate yourself.

Amazing, huh?

You can also team up with others. This makes it easier and more fun in the long run.

Loving it? Make it part of daily life.

You pick your pace and activities.
