Hi there,
If we are going to end poverty in a generation, our youth must be involved as participants and leaders in our work. This month we are offering a number of resources for you about: the inclusion of youth in your poverty reduction initiatives; the case for engaging youth; tools for including them in the process; cases of mobilizing and organizing; funding opportunities; and programs for youth that help develop assets. In particular, take a look at how the Yukon Anti-Poverty Coalition is providing platforms for youth to be engaged in activities that matter to their community.
Also of special note, Tamarack's Community Change Institute is beginning conversations with faculty and keynote speakers on the art of disruption. Join the webinar series this summer, then dive into the five-day event happening in vibrant Toronto this September. More details in our 'Get Involved' section, below.
Next month's issue of Cities Connect will focus on the human rights approach to poverty reduction. If you have any stories, news, or resources you would like to contribute, please contact natasha@tamarackcommunity.ca.
Sincerely,
The Vibrant Communities Canada Team
