This webinar was hosted by YouthREX.

HERE’S HOW THE HOSTS DESCRIBE THIS WEBINAR:

This webinar provided valuable insight on how to authentically work with underrepresented, marginalized youth so that you/your organization can effectively develop, inspire, and nurture youth leadership and engagement. Based on her extensive experience working with youth from diverse communities, Amy Hosotsuji, Coordinator of the Grassroots Youth Collaborative, and Duane Hall, Events Curator and founding member of Toronto-based grassroots youth organization Spoke N’ Heard, shared 10 top strategies and key observations on this topic, including reflections and case study examples from individual, organizational, community, and systemic contexts.

Amy was also joined by Rebecca Houwer from YouthREX, who contextualized their discussion using research she conducted on youth leadership and engagement for a Mitacs-Accelerate Graduate Research Program, with the support of community partner For Youth Initiative.
