Youth Voices & Empowerment
1. Is the makeup of your organisation reflective of the young people you
represent and the communities you operate within? If not, why not?
2. Are young people of colour at key meetings and in decision making
roles?
3. Do you trust young people to make decisions and allow them to learn
through their own experiences?
4. How do you receive feedback? Are you creating spaces to provide
anonymous and open feedback? What opportunities do young people
have to share their ideas and opinions?
5. Are you creating space and providing support and resources to allow
young people to build their confidence and skills to speak their truth, hold
their own, and become strong leaders and mentors?
6. Does your organisation have clear instructions for young people on
how they can express their concerns? How are their concerns addressed?
