The Truth about Youth is about...
- supporting young people to deal positively with the challenge of growing up in a culture which has a widespread negative perception of youth.
- increasing levels of interaction between young people and adults to raise mutual understanding and develop projects in which they all have an interest and for those projects to have a lasting benefit.
- engaging young people to identify and set up their own cooperative projects which address their needs and demonstrate young people’s value to society.
- co-ordinating youth activity into a media campaign to increase the positive coverage of youth issues.
- creating opportunities for young people to engage with wider audiences from private, public and voluntary sectors and to positively influence the attitudes wider audiences hold.
- creating a network of young people willing and able to continue to build on the impact of this project.
