We are always looking for news ways to simplify information and make it easier to capture our work. With this in mind, YOURS has just finished the production of a new video explaining the Capacity Development Programme! It takes a moment to explain our training programme and includes testimonials from our training participants. See if a training could benefit your organization.
Here at YOURS, we pride ourselves at being different. We use unique methodology to engage young people in becoming active in road safety all around. Our capacity development programme is not just about turning young people into road safety advocates, its about giving young people the skills and knowledge needed to run their own road safety projects, to make an impact on the ground; with their peers and the community. It is about providing young people with life long transferrable skills that they can use for the rest of their lives. Its to empower young people to know that they can be agents of change and to mobilize a road safety conscious generation to combat the biggest killer of young people; road crashes.
Last year, significant milestones for road safety were reached. We launched the first ever Youth and Road Safety Action Kit, a comprehensive introduction to road safety for young people all around the world. Designed with young people in mind and equipped with the information needed to give young people a starting point in road safety, the kit condesed the sphere of technical road safety reports into an accessible format for young people to use.
Our new video highlights the Capacity Development Programme in its entirity including its aims, objectives and content. It also includes testimonials from our participants who provided a candid expression of their experience during the full Training of Facilitators Programme in Kenya (December 2012).
It focuses on the methodology of the programme including its unique features. The video also includes testimonials with our key partners on the ground during our Kenya training.
The ultimate aim of this video is to introduce the wider road safety community to our trainings, a unique oppornuity to invest in a future generation of road safety campaigners, policy-makers, advocates and socially active young people.
