Testimonials

Bridget Glasgow

I chose (the issue of) transport after working with Arthur in secondary schools because of his expertise and huge range of creative ideas for engaging youth... Already the youth have initiated more action back in their own region than the previous years because of Arthur's facilitation skills which enabled them to have a deeper understanding and perspective of transport in Auckland and the western world. Arthur also provided simple and practical ideas that the students could implement and be effective in making a difference.

empowering children & youths to walk and bike

Urbanthinkers helps local authorities engage children and youths in the development of innovative ways to;

  1. increase physical activity, 
  2. reduce school traffic and 
  3. lower air pollution.

YOUTH ENGAGEMENT is a necessary catalyst to succeed in the three goals mentioned above. That is why we are in the business of training and supporting adult facilitators to better engage youth leaders in their community.

Since 1996, we've worked on student leader engagement, training and support in Canada, Australia, NZ and the USA.

Our award-winning strategies have proven successful in a variety of formats; from short-term events and activities -such as;

 
  • Earth Day, 
  • IWALK to School Day, 
  • Youth Forums
  • Adult Facilitator Workshops

to ongoing programs -such as 

  • Safe Routes to School (SRTS), 
  • School Travel Planning (STP)
  • Bike Better.

We already know how to adapt our tools and strategies to suit the needs, conditions and character of your community. Contact us now to find out why we are the right choice to help you 

promote positive behavioral change in your community.
