A Young Person’s Vision for Youth Work in NI – Omagh Youth Centre

Posted on October 15, 2024 by Louise

An interactive & fun youth-led event to hear from young people about what you want for the future of youth work.

Saturday 9^th November in Omagh Youth Centre from 10:30-2pm with pizza to finish

This event is for 13-25 year olds, to hear directly from them about their their ideas for the future of youth work in Northern Ireland.

The Department of Education has started a review of youth work policy. As young people are key stakeholders in youth work, we are putting their voices at the centre of the policy development.

With the help of a Young Person’s Reference Group we are running multiple events on the theme of ‘A Young Person’s Vision for Youth Work in NI’. This event will take place in Omagh, with others having taken place in Belfast and Derry/Londonderry.

Join us at Omagh Youth Centre to have your say! The event has been designed by young people and will use youth work methods to achieve a balance of fun and engaging activities. There will be spot prizes throughout the day and we will finish with pizza for lunch.

Whether you’ve been involved in youth work before or are new to it, this event is for you. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to be part of a discussion that will shape the future of youth work for years to come!
