What do you suggest other people try out?<\/h4>\n

Avoiding \u201cAdultism\u201d<\/p>\n

Adults can sometimes believe they have greater contributions than children and believe that youth need to become adults before they have expertise. It is important to reflect on the way we think and act. To identify if you are being \u201cadultist\u201d reflect on statements you make and ask yourself \u201cwould I treat another adult like that?\u201d \u201cwould I use that tone of voice?\u201d.<\/p>\n

Tell us your advice on doing participation activities –
\nwhat worked well, what you enjoy, what is inclusive?<\/h4>\n

During the pilot of YouCreate, some youth reported that
\ndiscussions about safety, security and justice and rights were
\noverwhelming for them. We have adapted the language of the
\npillars to help address this concern. Youth also reflected that they
\ndid not have control over these areas of their lives, and could not
\naddress these through their Art-Action projects. In the pilot we
\nsaw evidence that youth were able to create a sense of safety and
\nsecurity through the project, and did increase specific rights such
\nas participation. As adult support people, please guide Youth
\nLeaders to discuss these important concepts with consideration,
\nexploring areas of youth\u2019s lives they feel some control over, and
\ncan realistically address within YouCreate. It is important to
\nacknowledge that YouCreate may not have impact on the broader
\nenvironment of adversity or conflict, but changes at the individual,
\npeer, family and even community level, can help improve these
\nmore challenging pillars as well.<\/p>\n

For example, when discussing Pillar 1: Feeling Safe, although a
\nyouth may not feel safe living in a conflict zone, there might be
\npeople, places or things that help them connect with a feeling
\nof safety, and this is important to grow and support through
\nYouCreate. In the pilot of YouCreate, the YouCreate team and
\nmeeting space often became a place where youth felt safe and
\nsupported. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

What did we do<\/h4>\n

YouCreate is an initiative of Terre des hommes, and was designed and carried out in partnership with the International Institute for Child Rights and Development. <\/p>\n

YouCreate is a PAR Project aimed to train youth leaders, with the support of Adult Allies and the \u2018Art-kit\u2019 (training manual), to lead their peers in implementing participatory arts-based research projects and \u2018Art Actions\u2019 – arts-based activities designed to address issues of significance to youth in their community. <\/p>\n

Youth are trained to map and explore significant community issues and challenges and to collaboratively select challenges to address in their communities through design and implementation of \u2018Art Actions\u2019.<\/p>\n

YouCreate Art-kit: The Art-kit is a guide that youth leaders can use for planning and leading activities and provides tips and tricks for supporting youthleaders work.<\/p>\n

YouCreate Project Management Guide: designed to help project staff to understand the YouCreate project and how they can support youth and colleagues to develop a strong project.<\/p>\n

YouCreate Capitalization Report: This report provides important background information on the current state of arts-based programming for young people impacted by migration and adversity worldwide.<\/p>\n

Tell us what you found out - \nwhat were people's experiences, views or ideas for change?<\/h4>\n\nThis PAR project has been breaking down barriers between youth, their families and communities who are coming together with a common purpose of strengthening wellbeing through the arts.\n\n

What are your recommendations or calls to action?<\/h4>\n\nKey recommendations for consideration in the You Create project:\n1. A holistic social ecological approach to MHPSS should be implemented.\n2. Supporting the resilience of young people should be a main goal of arts-based programming.\n3. Develop an approach that positions young people as change makers.\n4. Enable young people to connect with their peers through peer-networks.\n5. Develop strong trusting relationships between adult allies and youth leaders.\n6. Ensure facilitators are properly trained and supported to lead an interactive participatory approach.\n7. Apply a gender lens to arts-based programming.\n8. Respectfully challenge discrimination based on gender, culture or nationality through arts\n9. Find ways to encourage social cohesion through arts-based programming by intentionally bringing diverse groups together.\n10. Provide time and budget for relationship and trust building in all trainings, workshops, and in program activities with young people.\n11. Ensure that all activities are grounded in culture and context. Engage local community members and teams in the contextualization and design of activities.\n12. Recognize the value of art as a tool for strengthening psychosocial wellbeing and creating social change. Build this into program design more broadly across programs.\n13. Carry out a stakeholder analysis prior to\/upon inception of projects in order to ensure that a community engagement model is applied.\n14. Seek out opportunities for research grants and partnerships with research institutions to contribute innovative research and evidence to support youth-led arts-based programming to strengthen psychosocial wellbeing and protection of young people.\n15. Encourage a youth-led mixed methods approach to Monitoring and Evaluation.\n\n","post_title":"YouCreate toolkit - Participatory arts-based action research for well-being and social change","post_excerpt":"
