I was delighted to welcome @ScotlandMalawi Youth Festival to @StirUni last week. It was a great opportunity to share the University’s wide engagement in research in #Malawi with learners from various schools across Scotland.
Last week Thursday, the SMP held its Youth Festival themed “For the Better - Together!” in collaboration with the @StirUni. This inspiring event gave secondary school learners, teachers, and students an opportunity to connect, exchange ideas, and develop fresh ways to support school partnerships in Malawi. More information on the event will be shared in this week's newsletter. Videography by Alan Jones Song by Cretik - Usadzambiseso #scotlandmalawi

@easduncan @StirUni, SMP trustee, will lead an insightful workshop on road traffic collisions and road safety. How can young people make a real impact? He’ll also share about the Chitetezo Project, a road safety initiative in Malawi. 🚦 #RoadSafety #YouthAction #ChitetezoProject

It will also be a great opportunity for the young people to learn more about Scotland's Children's Parliament. With a wonderful video welcome from @LordMcConnell and lots of interactive fun and learning planned, it looks set to be a great day! Photos and updates to follow....
