A free two-day course for young women aged 18-25 on leadership, civic representation, confidence and communication. The goal is to encourage young women to represent and lead – at home, at work, in their community and in public life.
The programme is open to staff and volunteers in Third Sector organisations. It will bring together 30-40 young women, in groups of 5 from each organisation. At the end of the two days, the participants will produce media content, such as a short video, which will be released during National Democracy Week (2-6 July).

Each group will produce a video (or a short piece of media) at the end of the two days which will be scheduled for launch as part of National Democracy Week (2-6 July) by the Department for Communities.
It is up to the participants to choose the topic and messages; this may be a topic chosen by each group or a message relevant to the organisation to which they belong. Regardless of content, this video will be provided to each of the organisations for review prior to being broadcasted.
Participating organisations may wish to support this release through their own promotional and social media channels. The output will be made available after Democracy Week for the participating organisations to use in their own promotional work, if appropriate.
