| ABOUT US |
|
|
| |
| MyGeneration has developed the SEA Concept and
any projects we operate must contribute to all three
of these categories. |
|
Skills
Skills are needed to contribute to
society: both extrinsic (jobs and careers)
as well as intrinsic (parenting). There
has to be an emphasis on social skills
such as beneficial sustainable longterm
relationships and self discipline,
which entails regular attendance and
participation at school. One of the key
messages any society can give to its
young people, is a love of education in all
its forms. |

job skills, support and encouragement
of enterprise). Communities need to
learn they must be given the opportunity
to build support networks within a
community, which are essential to unify
its structure. It is incredibly hard to
make a difference in somebody�s life and
it takes time and dedication. This is why
we should empower people to develop
the skills for their families. |
|
|
|
Empowerment
Poorer communities need to gain the
skills to facilitate their own futures and
move away from a model of managed
communities. This would involve
capacity building in a real way (e.g.
development of personal responsibility, |
|
Attitude
Confidence and expectations need to be
raised in what parents can achieve for,
and with their children. Parents are the
great untapped resource that we have.
Children�s futures should be planned
by them and their parents and not by
circumstance. |
| |
Through our projects we look to achieve the following
· Develop children and the community to become self-supporting
· Increase social mobility: education, support, careers
· Increase academic achievement and self-investment
· Create future leaders and role models in the community
· Healthy, drug-free lives
· Training in parenting issues/skills, health and careers for adults
· Reduce criminality and increase community safety
· Reduce experience of social exclusion |
