City Leaders
City Leaders
Autus is delighted to be participating in the London Youth City Leaders project. Working in teams with a real finance budget, the City Leaders project is in its third year and encourages young people from diverse backgrounds to design and run a series of activities of their own design. At Autus, we want to focus on engaging the collaborative nature of the programme, particularly encouraging people to take a leadership role and to use their skills to deliver some fantastic projects. The programme has three stages:
Team: Participants work together to come up with and run a group activity within their budget. Creating and participating in this activity together will help them to learn about teamwork and get used to working with one another.
The City Leaders - Team Stage 2018/19 is now complete. The learner-developed comic book created during the project is now available as a full colour .pdf to download via the link at the foot of this page.
Club: With a new budget, participants will develop and lead a project to improve a local youth organisation.
Community: Participants will work together to design a project to benefit their local community, which they will go on to pitch for funding at Community Events.
Finally, the organisers will select outstanding individuals from across the project to participate in a fourth, 'Futures' stage; a tailored, accredited Leadership Programme with a residential element.
You can read more about our plans for the program in the .pdf flyer in the Files section, below!
