There's No Business, Like Show Business

Sir Martin likes to call capacity building at Project VOYCE "the business of show business!" While Sir is usually on the "show" side of things as one of PV's experienced trainers, he quickly absorbed many business lessons while at the YouthSpeaks' Brave New Voices convening in San Francisco. Through one YouthSpeaks full scholarship and the generosity of PV volunteer extraordinaire, Sonja Chapman, Sir Martin and Uche Ohaya were able to travel to the convening in mid February. While there, they learned about critical pedagogy, theories of change, individual donor campaigns, and program evaluation. PV was also awarded a YouthSpeaks grant as part of their "I Want to Live" campaign, which will allow students to explore issues of social justice through poetry.
