In Defence of Youth Work would like to invite you to a participatory discussion on Black Lives Matter as it relates to youth work.

This online seminar will begin with introductions and a small number of short inputs to inform and inspire discussion.

There will then be space to discuss the issues in small breakout groups and collectively.

The event will take place on Friday 3rd July, 3:30pm-4:30pm on Zoom. You are very welcome whether you are a youth worker / youth work participant who is also an organiser or activist; whether you are reflecting on how to respond in your youth work practice; or whether you simply want to get together with others and use this space to educate ourselves on this issue.
