<p><b>About the seminar</b></p>
<p>How do we engage youth? What is our role in supporting and facilitating youth activism? An essential part of youth work is to redefine how our culture tends to read youth. Authentic engagement criticalizes ways in which we work with, and also stand aside
at different times. This presentation is partially based on the work celebrated in Activists Under 30: Global Youth, Social Justice, and Hood Work. (2018). Steinberg, SR. Brill/Sense Publishers: Leiden, NL.</p>

<p><br>
</p>
<p>Shirley’s work focuses on the cultural/social/education development of youth, and critical community involvement. She is concerned with how society views young people, and her work creates an environment in which youth are viewed as positive democratic agents
