I am passionate about

<p>Citizenship education and improving political literacy among young people in the UK and overseas.</p>

Actions

<p>The project I run, Hands up who&#39;s Bored (in partnership with O2 and Democratic Life), won a national&nbsp;campaign to keep Citizenship education on the British national curriculum! Thousands if not millions have now secured the right to learn&nbsp;how they can implement positive change within their communities and across the country!</p>

<p>At present, Who&#39;s Bored is working alongside the 30-member coalition Democratic Life&nbsp;on four pillars that we believe can combat political apathy: Citizenship education, digital democracy, civic participation and voting.</p>

<p>We continue to lobby the British government on ensuing political literacy is high on their agenda and work with a millennial outlook; meaning we remain a-political and concentrate on solving issues with every political institution.</p>
