In this section you will find ideas to help you call a group of young people together, resources for a group, and activities to introduce global justice.

You’ll have a few young people you are keen to get involved a little further. Encourage them to take a look at our Great Generation resources. These are aimed directly at young people and will help them take the next step.

If you are working with a Confirmation group, there are resources for you too.
