WHO WE ARE
Amplifying young voices where it matters most
The World Vision UK Youth Advocacy Network (YAN) unites young people from the UK and around the world to share their experiences and influence decision-making.
The network engages with UK policymakers, including the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and Members of Parliament, to promote child-focused policies that prioritise youth voices. Members also work closely with World Vision UK's leadership and teams, co-creating initiatives, advising on campaigns, representing youth at events, and leading youth-led activities to ensure children remain central to World Vision UK's work.
