In April 2024, the GHfP Institute and Scholas co-piloted a Young Changemakers Programme (YCP) on the UWTSD’s Lampeter Campus.
Young Changemakers Programme (YCP) offers inspirational and transformative learning opportunities that combines encounter, experience, inquiry and action in a circular itinerary. It aims to enhance young people’s self-awareness, mutual appreciation, and understanding of local-global challenges.
Youth from around the planet came together for a one-week experiential learning, arts-based learning, intergenerational dialogue, integrating hands, heart and head into holistic learning experiences. More importantly, Young Changemakers Programme offered these young people an opportunity to bring embodied learning to meaningful actions back in their communities.
Young Changemakers Programme is extremely effective in expanding youth’s horizons, helping youth connect learning with their life’s purpose, recognising that learning is a whole person endeavour and learning contributes to one’s own and one’s community’s well-being.
