How you can contribute - Laeticia

 

We can take part in a variety of meaningful activities that promote change and strengthen our communities by effectively supporting young activism. To contribute, however, we must first discover our cause. What problems have we discovered? What change do we strive to achieve? We must be aware and understand what challenges may obstruct us, as well as plan what solutions we can execute. A clear cause is crucial in maintaining motivation to follow through with whatever is needed to change for the better. Afterward, we must educate ourselves in the matters related to our advocacy, as well as equip ourselves with the necessary skill sets, such as public speaking. This would allow us to more effectively engage with others. 

Change cannot be achieved alone. Thus, we must collaborate with our peers, especially those who share the same aspirations as us. By supporting each other, we can create a more solid foundation and create an activism journey that is both enjoyable and impactful. This can be done by creating a group or joining an existing group. If you would like to join a group, it is recommended to reach out using social media and present your abilities to be accepted as a member. Once we have started our journey, we need more concrete actions. Advocacy need not be conveyed through standard and boring mediums, such as speeches. Art and music are powerful tools that can convey a message to its audience. Should we have any talent in these areas, we should use it as a personal expression to attract a broader audience’s attention towards important issues, thus raising awareness. 

 

Raising awareness is crucial to the progress and success of advocacy. Nowadays, we should adapt to the modern era and the ever-developing technology. Using social media platforms to mobilize support is a perfect example of this. It helps us reach a wider audience, allowing us to inspire others to join our efforts. Not only that, once we have gathered enough influence, we may engage with community leaders. Working together with schools and local government or organizations allows us to raise awareness and gain more support for our initiatives in local policies. Sometimes, however, it's simply not enough to raise awareness. People are often unmotivated to join us. That is why we should participate in community service projects that not only benefit people in need but also strengthen our community ties. This also allows us to gain more experience, as well as gain more information and understand public opinion as we interact with them. 

Of course, many people are truly devoted and wish to create substantial change. But what if we are not that kind of people? Of course, not everyone can initiate change, but everyone can show support. We can do this by helping our chosen activists by spreading awareness. For example, if we wish to show support for environmental protection, we can start by forwarding or reposting our activist posts to our friends and families. Support can also be shown through simple actions. In this case, we show support by throwing or sorting trash according to its proper designation, and not littering, as well as reminding our friends to do the same. Simple steps like this may seem useless, but they support activism. If everyone begins together, as youths, we can foster change both locally and even globally.
