Begin Making Changes in Your School

Clubs

Join or start a club at your school! This can be a great way to meet people with similar interests, participate in activities related to your issue, and it can help you gain leadership experience.

Classes

Strengthen and deepen knowledge by taking classes like AP environmental Science, AP Human Geography, Civics, and Sex Education. If your school doesn’t offer these classes learn about the power of petitions and how to collaborate with administration to get them added!

Assembly

Hold and assembly at your school or in one of your classes to share your World of 7 Billion video and raise awareness.

Tabling

Set up a table at a local event to gain support for your cause and to inform others of its importance!
