Montreal Speaking Rights Youth Engagement Projects 2015

The Centre for Human Rights & Legal Pluralism invites you to the a celebration of youth engagement in human rights. Come meet local youth who are transforming their communities.  Hear about their projects, challenges, ideas, and vision!

We know our rights, we are empowered. We raise our voices, we are heard!

For the last 4 years, Equitas’ Speaking Rights program has been supporting youth engagement projects across Montreal. These projects are opportunities for youth organisations to benefit from a small amount of financial support and Equitas’ coaching and support to implement activities allowing youth to play an active and positive role within their communities.
