Evidence verified by: one activity organiser
- Translate Values into Content: Take your organization's values and, in a collaborative session with young people, turn them into three actionable content ideas. For example, if a value is 'community', an idea could be 'a video series introducing different members of the youth centre'.
- Engage Youth as Co-creators: Involve a group of young people in a content-creation project. Work together to plan, film, and edit a short video for social media that reflects the new strategy.
- Create a Content Calendar: Use a tool like Notion to create a content calendar for one month, with input from young people on what they would like to see and when. Plan at least three posts per week and a system for collecting their feedback.
- Reflect on a Privacy Challenge: Think about a time a young person asked you to remove content. Write a short reflection on how you would handle this based on the new privacy guidelines and your personal ethics.
