5 Voices that are underrepresented in Child and youth care professional practice
Students are asked to research and prepare a 1500-word written
paper that presents 5 Voices that the student believes are underrepresented in Child and Youth Care
professional practice
(To be explicit, none of the 5 voices may be of white people of any gender.)
The final paper should identify and comment on the dominant Child and Youth Care Voices, introduce
the 5 underrepresented Voices before linking these observations to contemporary
CYC practice, identity and themes discussed in this course
The 5 Voices selected can be from any
medium, and any location. Students are encouraged to investigate beyond
traditional academic journals and listen for voices that use arts and community
platforms. These might include film, spoken word, performance arts, music, dance,
environmental work.
