00:22on designing new creative projects that benefit their community

00:26however they decide what their community is.

00:35This work is intended to invest in young people by building their confidence as advocates for their community,

00:43giving them chance to learn new skills, not only creativity but things like communication,

00:49teamwork and ways to use their voices to make change happen.
