POWER Presentation

Transcript: POWER What is Power? Where does Power lie? How do I exercise my Personal Power? CONTEXT OF THE SESSION Objective: for young people to have a full understanding of how Power impacts and influences their lives within a local global context Who: A general Youth Group of 15 to 16 years of all genders Setting: Youth Setting in the community online and in person. Size: 8 to 12 young People Needs : Through the needs assessment young people identified that they felt powerless to control external & internal events in their life. The young people have agreed a group contract in advance Structure of the Session STRUCTURE OF THE SESSION Superpower Icebreaker Before the session begins, give four members of the group a ‘secret super-power’ which they are not allowed to share with the rest of the group. Don’t tell the rest of the group about this secret task. They can do it in as obvious or as subtle a way as they would like. Superpower 1: Has the power to decide when we take a break Superpower 2: Has the power to decide what music we listen to Superpower 3: Has the power to take photos throughout the session Superpower 4: Has the power to spread ‘fake news’. Ask them to spread a rumour that is completely ridiculous throughout the group. What is Power? Using a flipchart and markers, young people are asked to brainstorm what power means to them in smaller groups. This will be followed with a popcorn style sharing session where participants have the opportunity to share their opinions and insights, taking note of words and concepts that reoccur. Throughout this sesion we will look at some of these concepts. Embodying Power Give each small group a table, 4 chairs and a bottle. Ask someone to place the objects in a way that demonstrates 'Power'. No objects can be removed but they can be placed in any way in the scene. Ask the group to describe what they see. Do we all agree on the scene? Ask someone to change it if they can see a better way. Repeat for a number of rounds. For each round another volunteer should insert themselves into the scene in a way that makes them the most powerful. Carry out a short reflection following the exercise on what power looks like. Video & Discussion https://youtu.be/XvBl2UWK278 POWER: Young People Young Voices video and disucssion Closing Activity Write power on a sign in the middle of the room. Ask each participant to position themselves in the room depending on how much power they feel. Discussion around each participant’s position- why do they feel empowered/ not powerful? How much power do you feel you have to make a change in relation to climate change? How much power do you feel you have to make a change in relation to homelessness? How much power do you feel you have to make change at school/ college? How much power do you feel you have to make change in this group? Discuss the secret ‘superpower’ task. Did those with superpowers feel more powerful? Does the task reveal anything about the nature of power eg sometimes we just need to ask or to take action if we want to change something? ACTIVITY COVID BUSTERS: Who's Got the Power? https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ml5eyn87s82NoZR4sksKNIZb7_H7LLZn1YQbr_xJzh0/edit#slide=id.gb5b93e38e8_0_45 Mind Mapping Exercise MIND MAPPING Aims Participants will complete a Mind Map.
