About this class
More Information
This class is for educators, school and children's librarians and youth workers who want to increase youth wellbeing through experiential activities that empower young people to raise their voices and take positive action in their communities.

Working with young people to design, create and run inclusive innovation challenges in their school and local community, enables them to develop their life-skills as problem-solvers, deepen their wellbeing through imagination and raise their voices on issues that are important to them to shape the future. 

Empowering youth to flourish in their lives, starts with enabling them to believe that they can make change happen. 

Elaine France has worked with 2000+ young people and educators, from around the world, to show them how to design, create, run and participate in innovation challenges. Her guidance in this live online workshop, will provide you with a proven framework to engage young people ages 8-25 years in a variety of settings. You can apply the tools and format immediately and effectively in your own setting.

Together we will:
  • Explore the steps to creating an inclusive innovation challenge.
  • Identify how to include young people in designing a challenge that is meaningful to them.
  • Connect the challenge to your education pastoral care activities.
  • Align the innovation challenge with curriculum subjects.
  • Discover how to help young people overcome the reactions that prevent their participation.
  • Learn how to make the innovation challenge a safe space for all young people.
  • Create local innovation challenges that empower youth to believe that they can make change happen.

"I loved doing this idea challenge, because it was an opportunity for us as children to share our ideas about ways to save the world, which would make everyone very happy. It was good because there were no limits on ideas. We could draw diagrams and make models which makes it easier to explain the ideas and how they work. I loved that Elaine was very positive and encouraging."
