If you are interested in making change, you may find these resources useful!

The Changemakers website, created by this project (English language version, Welsh Language version). This website is for young people living in Wales who want to make change to Wales, the UK, and globally. If there’s something you want to be different, you can make change by engaging with Senedd Cymru (Welsh Parliament), UK Parliament, or taking other actions to get your voice heard. It’s important to know which organisation has the power to make the change you’re campaigning for, so we’ll tell you about devolution and the connections between the UK and Wales.

The Open Learn free short course ‘An introduction to making political and social change’.

The Open University’s Changemakers: A Guide to Making Political and Social Change (pdf, 2.5mb) – A guide to making change, focused on the UK Parliament.

The Open University Wales Active Citizenship Hub, a collection of free resources to help promote active citizenship in Wales.
