Resources for Youth Leaders
With Youthscape UK, we've created The Freedom Challenge, a powerful resource for youth leaders
IJM have teamed up with one of the UK's leading youth agencies, Youthscape, to design The Freedom Challenge: an innovative, immersive escape-room style adventure designed for young people and youth groups.
What is The Freedom Challenge?
A cutting-edge escape-room style challenge designed for a generation of youth to engage in justice.
Through solving puzzles, cracking codes, uncovering stories, The Freedom Challenge will introduce you and your youth group to the work of IJM, the urgent problem of slavery across the world, and how you can play your part in ending it.
What will you get in your event kit?
In your event kit you will find everything you need to set up your escape room style adventure:
- A host Guide taking you step-by-step through the whole experience
- A USB stick containing puzzles, props, soundtracks, videos and three follow-on sessions to explore God’s heart for justice
- Wristbands for those who manage to complete the challenge to wear proudly!
- Three bonus follow-on sessions to help your youth group take a deeper dive into the call to seek justice, as they continue their justice-discipleship journey
Slavery still exists. Today, there are more people in slavery than ever before. But things change when young people choose to take action.
