Why do we exist ?

To encourage and empower young people to become agents for social change!

What do we do ?

ruMAD? is a curriculum framework that allows teachers to facilitate student-led, experiential and authentic learning to promote community engagement, build social capital, and to equip young people with the tools to make social change within the school, local, national or global community.

We travel the country to introduce the ruMAD? framework to schools and teachers by providing PD Training for teachers and also going directly into classrooms to work with students.

What opportunities do we have for young people ?

If you want to take action on an issue you’re passionate about and you’re still at school, ruMAD? can show you how to do it as part of your school curriculum. 

The ruMAD? Framework is entirely student-led and directed.  It starts from students’ values and interests and at the very core is guided by the students’ values and visions.

The interactive online website provides a space to share your projects with other students around the country and there is 4 ways to get involved.
