Ignite Talk

It’s time for children and young people to be heard. The Youth Engagement Network develops local alliances and collaborations with young teenagers who don’t currently use their library.  Explore practical examples to help you shift power through co-creation while developing new skills for local young people and library workers. Hear what we’ve learned, including the challenges, and join the movement.
