RESTLESS DEVELOPMENT SIERRA LEONE
Restless Development was founded as Students Partnership Worldwide in 1985 by Jim Cogan, the Deputy Head of Westminster School. It was originally a gap year programme for school leavers from Westminster School to work as supply teachers in India or Zimbabwe.
Restless Development was established in Sierra Leone to supports the journey of a young person to become a leader and helps them multiply that leadership in their communities and around the world. Every year we train, mentor, nurture and connect thousands of young people to lead change. Some are social entrepreneurs, setting up businesses to provide for their families and create jobs, others are youth advocates, campaigning on issues like gender equality, climate justice, HIV and many others.
Currently, Restless Development is supporting to trains, educates, supports, and inspires young people to lead development in their countries and communities. It also helps young people make responsible choices about their health and their livelihoods. It gives young people the skills they need to contribute positively to society. It creates the opportunity for young people to play active roles in policy and decision making.
