Generation (Change?) is an organisation led by youth workers and young people with the primary aim of
creating a platform for young people to find their voice, express themselves and unite against injustice and inequality
within the community and beyond. Generation (Change?) understands the importance of young people being able to
confidently use their voices to enact positive social change throughout society. As a result, the organization would like to
achieve these aims by using non-formal and project-based education as a means to work with young people from
different backgrounds to develop their life skills. The target group are all young people however emphasize will be on the
challenging and socially deprived. The philosophy of Generation (change)? is that in the more diverse the group of young
people is the more there is opportunity of learning. The age bracket is also wide to include as much as possible different
experiences of young people. The organisation does not distinguish between gender, religious beliefs or political
opinions, disability, race or ethnic origin, nationality, sexual orientation, age or any other criteria which could be
discriminatory or divisive.
The organisation conducts various awareness programmes on sexual health, Environment, wellbeing and creativity
projects such as shadow puppetry. Currently The organisation is conducting a project based boat restoration project called “all hands on deck”, were young people are meeting together for this project to gain life skill together with vocational skills. The project is
conducted together with the local community of the inner harbour area. The idea is that this project will be an ongoing
project and after each summer the young people will conduct maintenance on the boat. During summer the local
community will pass maritime skills to the young people, while during winter the young people will gain vocational skills
together with the ongoing life skills.
Generation (change)? collaborates and works with other organisations and educational institutions.
