Day 6<br />

4) Allows youth and adults to work in full partnership – envisioning,<br />

developing, implementing, and evaluating programmes<br />

Youth-adult partnerships are not simply a checklist that either youth<br />

or adults follow.<br />

Ask some volunteers to read that definition out loud and to share their<br />

interpretation. <strong>The</strong>n, continue reading and share with the participants what<br />

does not constitute youth-adult partnership:<br />

1) Youth-adult partnerships are not ways to hide the fact that programs are<br />

designed, developed, and run by adults.<br />

2) Tokenism is not partnership. Examples <strong>of</strong> tokenism:<br />

■ Having youth present but with no clear role<br />

■ Assigning to youth tasks that adults do not want to do<br />

■ Having youth make appearances without training<br />

■ Having only one youth on a board or council<br />

Closure<br />

Distribute the handouts. If participants are still confused about partnerships<br />

between youth and adults, explain that defining such partnerships may become<br />

easier as the session proceeds. In that case, you might want to continue with the<br />

session and come back to the definitions at the end, if time allows.<br />
