Youth Participation
Youth Scotland is supporting young people to participate in decision making processes and in the management and leadership of their groups and communities.
Bored Meetings
Bored Meetings was conceived by young people who attended the first Edinburgh Youth Jury in January 2002, identifying the need for training to support their involvement in collective decision-making processes.
The Bored Meetings pack comprises various elements including: training cards, the 'development story', flashcards and handouts, a 'charter for young decision-makers' poster and information on how young people's work can be accredited through the Youth Achievement Awards. The pack supports workers and young people to reflect on and improve their group decision-making skills.

Bored Meetings Training for Workers
Training for youth and community workers is available, taking them through the pack and showing them how it can be used in their own groups. This also includes details of how young people’s involvement in the training activities can be accredited through the Youth Achievement Awards.
For future Bored Meetings Training for Workers training dates, please visit the Training Calendar.
If you are interested in Bored Meetings Training specifically for your group, please contact Youth Scotland on 0131 554 2561 or email office@youthscotland.org.uk.
