About this listen
Have you ever looked at a job ad asking for certain skills or qualifications and thought, couldn’t my life experience just qualify me for this? Lived experience is a unique expertise many young people don’t realise they have, that is actually super valuable in advocacy work. In this episode, Mac Zamani (he/him) talks about how he was always interested in getting involved in advocacy but never had the connections to do it. Hear how and why that changed during the pandemic, and how to create a way of doing advocacy that works for you!
