Our Campaign
Changemakers’ ambition is to create a world in which young people have the confidence to lead in employment, public life and society at large, and everyone understands we need them to.
We make as much of this happen as possible through our direct work with young people and organisations, but this can only reach a limited number of people. Our campaign, Fresh Thinking Needed, seeks to engage with individuals and organisations on a wider scale to make this culture change within society.
What does the campaign aim to do?
- To increase the proportion of young people in leadership roles, in employment as well as in public and civic life
- To tackle the barriers that young people face when trying to access leadership roles
