Changemaker Gear Up Training Series (GUTS)
Everyone can be a changemaker. But making real change you need courage and determination. Changemaker GUTS will build up your changemaking muscles by developing your mindset and skills to make positive impact.
A series of activities, talks and workshops will be offered to support you to become a changemaker. These will include some practical tools and approaches that you can apply in your projects.
