How to do it
Divide the young people into groups of four or five. Explain that the task is to create a political party that will campaign on youth issues. Each group will need to name their party and elect a leader.
Each political party now has 20 to 30 minutes to discuss and agree five election pledges of things that they will do to improve things locally for young people if they are elected. Once these have been agreed, allow the young people a further 30 minutes to come up with campaigns intended to persuade others to vote for them.
