Debate to Action

Debate to Action is based around international and national development aimed at young leaders from youth organisations. It is currently running in Africa and the UK and provides opportunities for implementing the Millennium Development Goals within the community. It also offers skills building, interaction and Intercultural Dialogue between Africa and the UK.

Participants learn about international and national frameworks for development -including the UN's Call to Action on the Millennium Development Goals-, their own roles within these frameworks and how to share information effectively with other young people as well as making an impact in their communities. DTA is a youth-empowerment programme through participation encouraging Active Global Citizenship whilst creating opportunities for interaction and Intercultural Dialogue.
