| Recipient Org: Description | Integrate UK is a youth-led charity that invests in the skills, passions and talents of marginalised, socio-economically challenged young people (YP) to nurture future leaders who promote our vision of gender and racial equality, integration and community cohesion. We engage around 150 YP annually in a range of activities focusing on addressing issues relating to gender and racial inequality that they identify as affecting their lives. Many of the issues are controversial, including extremism, Islamophobia, honour based violence and abuse, FGM and homophobia. They produce videos, organise and host conferences and other events. We provide leadership opportunities, work experience and training and for those between 12 and 16, we support them to develop Equalities Councils in their schools to ensure the work is sustainable. We also offer one to one or small group support, mentoring and when needed, signposting to services. Our YP over the age of 18 who become Outreach Workers help to support themselves through further education by using their videos and lesson plans to deliver workshops, reaching 7,000 YP each year directly. Despite facing multiple disadvantages and often having direct experience of the issues we address, our YP go from being vulnerable to becoming agents of change. |
