Engagement Developer Youth Hub Värmland

Popis:

We are looking for an engagement developer who wants to help strengthen young people's opportunities to influence decision-making in Värmland. As an engagement developer, you are responsible for creating engagement, building relationships, and implementing activities that strengthen young people's influence and participation. You work closely with young people, but also together with decision-makers, public sector officials, and other partners who want to develop their work with youth influence. About the Project Youth Hub Värmland is a development project where Youth 2030 Movement, together with Region Värmland and other regional and local actors, explores how the public sector can become better at including young people in decisions and community development. Through workshops, dialogues, pilots, and co-creation with young people, the project develops new working methods and structures that enable youth influence. The role is based at Region House in Karlstad and includes travel within Värmland. About Youth 2030 Movement We are a small organization where everyone contributes to the association's overall work as needed. We support each other and participate in shared activities. Youth 2030 Movement is a non-profit association that brings together democracy activists, young leaders, children's rights advocates, and allied adults. We are convinced that Sweden needs a power shift – that democracy becomes larger and stronger when young people have more influence over community development. We have our sights set on 2030. Until then, we fight for lowering the voting age and for changing how decision-makers in municipalities, regions, and public agencies view young people. We do this by challenging, supporting, and contributing new working methods, analyses, and proven inclusion practices. We will not give up until every young person in Sweden has the power to influence society and their own life. Together, we break down barriers between young people and power.
