Youth Perspectives

Youth Perspectives SeminarJune 16th & 17th Camden Palace Hotel Cork

Exploring creative youth art and development education methodologies for use in formal and non-formal education sectors

This seminar brought together youth and those involved in developing and delivering programmes in the formal and non-formal education sectors. It crossed between the fields of development edu-cation, youth arts and youth and community work.

This seminar gave the participants an opportunity to broaden perspectives through creative dialogue between young people and adults working across these fields. It also created a space to explore methodologies together, and ways in which we can promote and become active as local and global citizens.

The creative workshops and round-table discussions were facilitated by young people who took part in a peer education programme run in Mayfield Arts Newbury House.

The seminar workshops allowed the participants to see how theatre, visual arts, digital media and dance can be used to explore development education and encourage confidence, learning and teamwork.

The seminar presentations included a range of speakers from the formal and non-formal education sectors, including Leargas, the UBUNTU network, and the visiting volunteers from Cooperacion Renovacion Cultural from Medellin, Colombia

The Deputy Lord Mayor John Buttimer opened the European Citizenship Postcard Exhibition which included work by teenagers from Mayfield, and an evening of performances from the visiting Colombians and Inma Moya’s contemporary dance troup in the Camden Palace Hotel.
