WAVAW Youth In Action coming to a school near you!!

By Dalya On June 30, 2010 | 0 Comments

This September, WAVAW will be reaching out to teenagers in Vancouver high schools with an innovative new program aimed at preventing violence. Using thought-provoking and engaging activities created specifically for youth, the program works to raise awareness about violence and motivate young people to take action in making their communities safer for everyone.

Students will learn how to:

Investigate the root causes of violence
Think critically about how socialization through the media impacts our bodies and minds
Think about how we value one another in society and to strive for equality
Begin thinking about what leadership looks like and what it means to intervene as a bystander
