Camden youth get their shout

Camden Youth Shout Out was a chance for young people to get together and discuss issues that matter to them.

This year's Shout Out event was hosted by Camden Youth Council on 24 April at the Crowndale Centre, Camden.

Shout Out was open to all 13 to 19-year-olds who live, work or attend schools / youth services in Camden. The workshop topics, chosen by Camden Youth Council members, our Youth MP and Deputy Youth MPs, were:

  • Safety on our streets
  • AI (artificial intelligence) and its impact on education
  • Post-Covid health and wellbeing.

It was a chance for attendees to express and discuss their views on these topics, as well as to help Camden Council and other agencies, such as local health services, to prioritise issues raised in their decision-making. Officers from Camden Council and our partner organisations were invited to attend and hear the views of children and young people directly.
