YL LEARNSPACE EVOLUTION
ACTIVATE A WEB OF RELATIONS AND INTERACTIONS IN THE CITY
Let’s fire up your vision and motivation by looking at the naturally unfolding potentials as people gather at a LearnSpace, agree that this rocking action should happen everywhere, and take simple steps of action using our available tools. It’s all common sense, you will agree.
This is an important page
… since many people ignore the plain fact that
many people yearn to create a good world, to meet lovely people, to have changemaker family, to live exciting activities, to have fun “taking over the city”, to surprise people with lovely stuff, to do big projects that really change society at relevant scale,
many “big places” like schools, businesses, public services, public spaces, media, the town hall that appear “closed to you” are willing and open to changemakers coming with offers and solutions aligned with their role, their job description, their ways of operation, their aspirations as an institution, as professionals and as persons. After all, all those spaces maintain a LOT of collaborations with all sorts of partners.
And now, equipped with the status, planetary network, tools, activities of YOUTH-LEADER, you have a lot to offer … not just as one kid or person, but as an able creative member of a global network of outstanding changemakers on the planet. As a local member (or certified YL Coach) you are offering to – free of cost – bring the services of this global network to the citizens, aligned with their aspirations, needs, passion and vision for their lives, streets and future. Who would say no to that?
So, back to Gryffindore mode. Wield your wands and see how the magic spreads!
