Research tells us that if young people have access to resources
that support them to get informed, feel empowered and take action
on social issues that are important to them then it can drastically
improve their mental health.
Social action not only improves individual's mental wellbeing it
also strengthens community connectedness and creates a space for
young people to inspire others and to participate in important
decision making processes.
We know that the more students understand about an issue the
more they'll feel empowered to do something about it. This section
of the website provides tools and tips that you can use with your
students to support them on how they can take action on issues that
are important to them in their local community.
