The Youth Voices advocacy programs aims to amplify youth voices. It engages participants – Re!gnite Africa Fellows – in policy advocacy awareness creation workshops, debates and public speaking tasks to strengthen their confidence, and seeks opportunities for them to speak out and publish their thoughts on issues they care about. The process starts from self-awareness and how young people can tap into their passion and potential, followed by practical steps on how to identify key advocacy issues/problems in the community, how to develop an advocacy action plan and how to build necessary coalitions to champion your cause.
