What does it mean to empower younger generations? Does it shift power away from others, or does it empower the whole? The concept of sharing and building and renovating our spaces, co-designed intergenerationally, enables more broad outcomes and possibilities. This episode features two guests and contributors to Salzburg Global Seminar, this seasons partner. Elo·ise loves to connect ideas, people and places. In her work with the charity Big Change, a catalyst for long-term changes to how we support the next generation, she nurtures Global Alliances. In particular, the Big Education Conversation, which has evolved from a campaign in England to get the public talking about the purpose and future of education into a global invitation launched at the UN Transforming Education Summit. With intergenerational collaboration at its core, the initiative is currently being adopted, adapted and co-created by partners across 6 continents. Elo·ise is committed to the craft of holding space for system transformation, from the personal to the global. This ranges from work to raise awareness and build agency around the Sustainable Development Goals, in her previous role building the World's Largest Lesson and presently with Colombian Charity Worn-en, to her practice as a massage therapist and Circles facilitator with Space To Pause. At the moment, she is particularly curious about the power of listening and attunement. Aliyah lrabor-York is the founder of Pupil Power, a nation wide movement based in the UK which empowers young people to develop their agency in order to reimagine the 21st century's Education system. Since starting her organisation at 16, her work has been awarded and recognised for advising global leaders/organisations on how to embed a genuine culture for youth voice. Currently she serves as the youngest board member for Lyfta Education, as well as an Associate Consultant at Big change. Her expertise include designing, aligning, and implementing collaborative and intergenerational campaigns and programs that transform practice in the Education system. Aliyah is currently studying Education, Policy and International Development at the University of Cambridge.
