Envision enables young people to realise their capacity to make a difference



Envision was founded in 2000 by four young people. The organisation aimed to challenge the general perception that young people are apathetic and disengaged - unconcerned with the challenges that face Britain and the world in the 21st Century. Envision's simple model supports young people to develop the skills, awareness, confidence and motivation necessary to lie at the heart of positive change.



Envision's principles



1. Within every individual lies the desire and capacity to create positive change - all that is required is the opportunity.

2. Learning by doing is more effective than simply learning through instruction.

3. Positive change is brought about by examples of individuals and groups making a difference, 'the ripple effect'.
