Future Voices International

Future Voices International is a pioneering grassroots level project enabling young people living in poverty the chance to be heard. Future Voices International is a cascade training program that is creating summer media schools, lasting 4-6 weeks in deprived regions of the world. The aim of the project is to teach, and bring to the realisation of young people that they do have a voice, and a right to be heard. We aim to give young people a chance to be part of the information age, helping them express themselves creatively through media and giving the participants a platform to share their stories with the world. The project has four main objectives- Bridging the digital divide: providing the resources and skills needed to effectively participate as a digital citizen- Improving social cohesion: increase mutual trust and understanding between the different social backgrounds and age ranges- Raising awareness: sharing the participant’s stories and important issues on an international scale- Children’s Rights: giving young people a platform to exercise their rights, through expressive media. Future Voices International is the start of a new beginning for its participants, helping change their lives for the better with the possibilities to create national change through political reform.
