Reimagined
The reimagined project is a social experiment fuelled by authentic lived experience with young people from all around the UK taking part in a year long process of activities.
The project will be led by the Hope Collective youth leadership team and will see Hope Hacks staged in each of the 21 VRU regions with unique insights, survey data and analysis feeding into the final manifesto.
10 work groups covering key areas of society that impact on young peoples lives and that have major implications where poverty and inequalities are present:
-
1 – Education
-
2 – Youth work
-
3 – Skills and employability
-
4 – Media, big brands and Marketing
-
5 – Mental Health
-
6 – Criminal Justice System
-
7 – Sports and recreation
-
8 – Early intervention programmes
-
9 – Racism and division
-
10 – Social housing and the environment
The work groups will be made up of ten seasoned professionals in their line of expertise. They will be chaired by a member of the core Hope Collective management and operations group and will work to a formatted agenda – A series of a minimum of 6 online workshop-style meetings discussing and debating their vision of what a more cohesive, less competitive and highly innovative version of their headline area might look like. One that offers fairer outcomes and opportunities to all young people.
Each group is being asked to craft out two top-line recommendations and once drafted into presentation style these will be shared with the Hope Collective youth leadership Team after which a joint workshop between the young people and experts will analyse the recommendations along with ideas researched by the young people. The final outcome will be 20 co-designed recommendations
The Hope Collective will be working with academics and analysts both from our in-house collective membership cohort and external agencies to develop the manifesto.
