Resource Title

From the Ground Up: Youth Power Tackling Inequality with the SDGs

Summary

‘Inequality has become normalised but there is nothing normal about it’. Confronting and addressing this idea is at the centre of this youth work resource developed around 14 interactive activities.

From busting myths, explaining how a power analysis can be used to investigate oppression and deep diving on a range of scenarios and personal stories from across the world this resource seeks to empower educators (and young people) to understand what is standing in the way of achieving the SDGs and what can be done about it.
