Pipelines and Pathways Research Project at Blagrave Trust

Three years into our current five-year strategy we are keen to embed learning about the resourcing needs, financial and non-financial, of young changemakers challenging and experiencing injustice across the UK.

We intend for this research to have three primary outcomes:

• To refine, expand, and/or update our current terminology used to define the different stages of a young changemaker’s development.
• To increase our understanding of what is needed to support changemaker progression at each stage.
• To clearly articulate the differences/similarities between our current programmes based on the above two outcomes and recommend how our programmatic offering for supporting young people to lead change could be improved.

We are keen to work with people who have a deep understanding of the young changemakers we work with and experience advancing work around social justice issues. We want our own assumptions to be challenged by appointing someone who is embedded in the space, with more advanced theory and thinking to our own. We especially encourage applications who have shared identities and experiences to the young people we support. If you meet most of the criteria set out in the brief but not all, please submit an application for our consideration.

Please read further details in our full brief for the work and for the details on how to apply.
