Engaging young people
The MsUnderstood Partnership has offered opportunities for young people to engage in policy, service and research development through internship and volunteer placements.
The Head of the MsUnderstood Partnership, Carlene Firmin, also offered the opportunity for young people to co-write her monthly column in The Guardian. See below:
- Women are still terrified of reporting rape, Jinan Younis, (28 October 2014)
- Protecting children and young people from sex abuse is a job for all of us, June Eric-Udorie, (02 December 2014)
Day of the Girl
In October 2014, MsUnderstood hosted "Our Version of Events", our first conference by and for young women, celebrating International Day of the Girl. Check out the video on the left produced by Alexis L Wood and Dimitris Mastroyiannis.

An opportunity like this is perfect for any young woman with an interest in this area, who is keen to strengthen/develop their skillsets and politics.
