Fantastic meet up for the Winifred Atwell’s blue plaque unveiling with @EnglishHeritage . We supported student research and presentations (couldn’t be prouder) and collected a range of voices. An immersive map of Winifred’s life coming soon! #VoicesMatter #YoungVoicesMatter

Such an awesome opportunity to represent @VoicesProject_ in working with @EnglishHeritage to share Winifred Atwell’s story with students over the past month. Student representatives spoke so eloquently today at her blue plaque unveiling. #GeographyTeacher #HistoryTeacher

Wonderful to see Akhera’s experiences in making change from school to today. Really inspirational for the students involved who were asked to consider what they could do and how they could do it. Including students own voices in school sustainable planning is crucia #VoicesMatter

Wonderful day working with student ambassadors @MAADRET today for their Green Day #SustainableDRET. Our ambassadors learnt from @VoicesProject_’s Akhera about how to become a future change maker. They conducted a hero’s journey starting with their call to action as a climate change and sustainability hero, before trialing dioramas of utopian and dystopian futures to teach our Year 5 visitors. We even had a vegan and vegetarian taster menu at lunch. What a wonderful day!

Great working with youth engagement @EnglishHeritage on a project for early next year. Empowering students to see that they have agency in nominating people with significant impact within their own communities. Platforming voices.

Pondering whose data are we collecting, and how are we using it? With @CMOGeography at @fiona_616 #100ideas launch. The @VoicesProject_ is a fieldwork game changer! 👏

Do you include voices in your fieldwork? Do you collect in-depth open ended small group questions? Enabling people to be comfortable and honest about their thoughts and feeling. #100Ideas #GeographyTeacher #Fieldwork
