Envision's Agents for Action

Envision, through a variety of empowerment programmes, provides real and rewarding experiences for people to make a positive difference and thereby realise their capacity and willingness to continue doing so.

Our core, youth-led, programme supports 16-19 year olds over the course of a year to run their own social or environmental projects that tackle the issues that matetr to them.

The Agents for Action programme is an interactive citizenship half day that has been designed to engage young people with a number of citizenship and sustainability themes and inspire them to become leaders.

Our workshop facilitators coach awareness, curiosity, discussion, cooperation, persuasion, creativity and project design. Games, group activities, role play, conversation, video and presentations are used to help young people develop their understanding of sustainability issues and explore ways to make a difference.

In July, with the support of the Innovation Exchange, we will be piloting some new and exciting workshops, including one that will explore how young people can use film to make a difference.
