Graduation

Every year we host a graduation event to celebrate the achievements of our young leaders. In 2018, we were truly blessed to have a number of our partners join us at the Hackney Town Hall

What do our young people say?

It’s important that we listen to our young people and find our what is working or not. We asked a few of our Young Leaders to give us their views about the programme.

Voyage production with Talawa Theatre

We have a number of incredible partners that help our young people tell compelling stories. We worked with Talawa Theatre to do a number of dramatic pieces about the stark consequences of young people facing discrimination.

Really proud of our amazing team of young leaders wrestling with big themes with the international press.
Amazed at their openness, frankness and their ability to tell it as it is. Comments like:
"Of course, no one is going to call her an f------ N-word in a headline," Peace Ogbuani, 15, said censoring herself in real time. "Maybe in America they would write that, but in Britain they are more subtly racist. Instead, you can see it in their mannerisms and the way they treat people." Her friend, Rhoda Sakate, 16, chimed in: "They are blinded by their white privilege. It's the older, white men" — her friends joining in, unprompted, to enunciate those words in unison — "who are the ones that are chatting the most." This discussion at a local community college was organized by the London-based charity Voyage, which says it "aims to empower marginalized black young people" through workshops, peer to peer development and runs a unique youth leadership qualification. For most of the group, Meghan was the first royal to pique their interest.

Our young leaders enjoyed sharing their views about #harrymegan with Alexander from @nbc. Our young people spoke about the impact on race relations and discussed the nuances and intersectional differences of racial treatment for darker skin toned women in the media. We miss you @officialhackneyabbott

Here is a #tbt from our young leaders and elders from ACLC. The “Our Memories Project” was inspired by the Windrush political scandal. We decide to collaborate with ACLC on this project as we are omitted to elevate the voices of all participants. The project involved 12 elders and 15 young people who took part in active learning about the Windrush community. #windrushgeneration#charityevent

If you missed it last night you can still catch yesterday’s episode of @bbcpanorama on bbc iPlayer which looks at knives in the classroom and features a snippet of the work @_voyageyouth_ has been doing in collaboration with @streetdoctors to train young people with the essential skills to save a life. Not only have our young people learnt these skills but now trained as co-facilitators and now able to empower their peers to be able to save a life also as they were doing at @hackney_quest thank you very much to @chanellawallace for giving a platform for young people to share their experiences #knifefree #youngleaders #youth #voyageyouth #streetdoctors #bbcpanorama🌐

We want to thank @arcolatheatre for inviting some of our young leaders to watch the amazing play #untiltheflood focused on the murder of Michael Brown. Opportunities like this expand horizons and who knows, we may have a future playwright in our midst! #youngleaders #youngpeople #youngleaders #theatre #arcolatheatre #voyageyouth
