Who is YSI for?

YSI is for all young people aged between 13-18 years old in post primary schools and further education settings throughout Ireland.

What's a YSI project?

A YSI project is a fun, creative and engaging experience through which young people co-create and implement solutions to real-world social issues.

How can I get involved?

Talk to a member of our Learning and Practice Team on how your school can take part in our programmes from September 2022.

How do you support teachers?

Educator training, world-class resources and a dedicated Learning and Practice Team are just some of the ways we support teachers.
