Teamwork really does make the dream work.

This report from Oxfam describes some of the strategies young leaders use to take collective action at the local level. The report outlines six organizational strategies that often meet with success.

These include:

  1. Direct governance
  2. Protest and industrial action
  3. Model parliaments or advisory boards
  4. Audits and research
  5. Prefigurative politics
  6. Media and art

You can learn more about what each of these methods entail in the report. The report also includes some recommendations for older adults who write policy that impact young people.
