Connective Perspectives: A Youth's Point of View

By Connective Perspectives: A Youth's Point of View

Connective Perspectives is a podcast that explores a youth's point of view. We recognize that youth in rural communities don't often have a platform to share their perspectives. We want to change that. This podcast is about connecting the experiences of youth from the South Shore of Nova Scotia to those of adults. Each episode focuses on a different topic, ranging from manipulation, to substance use or media. We explore each topic by having discussions with both youth and adults. We hope you take as much away from this as we have, thanks for listening!
