The Prophetic Activist Scheme 2021

The Prophetic Activist Scheme inspires, engages, and equips young adult (18-30 year old) Christians in campaigning and activism in its 9-month programme from March to December 2021. With access to experienced campaigners, a community just as keen as you, we partner with you to co-create a campaign.

We put our faith into action together and campaign on issues in solidarity with the world's poorest and most vulnerable.

If you want to campaign for change and build community, you’re in the right place.

So, how do we do this?

Throughout the programme, we at Christian Aid co-create with you, our prophetic activists, in a climate justice campaign of your choosing. We’ll have two weekends away (online), mentoring by experienced campaigners and regular webinars to build your skills throughout the year. The programme runs along your work, study or other commitments, with one or two events per month, usually in the evenings. 

We’ll also explore the Biblical call to live justly and righteously and equip in speaking truth to power and fighting against poverty -  igniting hope in what is unseen.

If you get involved, what will you receive?  

• Join a network and build community with like-minded campaigners
• Two residentials or online conferences packed full of training, amazing speakers and workshops to develop your campaign
• Webinars, workshops and wisdom from the journeys of different aged campaigners
• Increased confidence in your strength and power as a campaigner and ability to see change happen

What we need from you:

• A commitment to attend both residential weekends and to join meet-ups online once a month
• Help to plan and lead a campaign with Christian Aid on the climate emergency
• Attend a one to one meeting with your mentor once a month

We need your zeal, your leadership and your energy. We’ll match your vision with our encouragement, direction, resources, knowledge, and support. We’re seeking transformative change and each person has their part to play - join us.
