The UpLift Partnership is an $8m school-community-university partnership that is catalyzing youth engagement through a Health Promoting Schools approach in schools across Nova Scotia. UpLift is one of the projects within the Supportive Environments flagship within HPI. Our latest impact report provides a summary of the evaluation of UpLift over the last year.
Additionally, we have also sought to capture the impact of the work that we have been doing in schools and we are very happy to share three videos that showcase youth engagement from the perspectives of the Youth Engagement Coordinators that UpLift funding supports, adult champions in the schools we work in and the students we have engaged.
1. Catalyzing Youth Engagement in Health Promoting Schools
2. Adult Champions in Youth Engagement (Colchester Junior High School)
3. Empowering Youth through Youth Engagement (West Northfield Elementary School)
