About Integrate UK

Integrate UK is a youth-led organisation which supports young people aged 11-25 to advocate for themselves, providing platforms for their voices to be heard to influence change through creative and educational projects, including short films and music videos.

Founded in 2009 by four young girls advocating against Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), Integrate UK has grown into a youth-led community tackling broader issues like race, gender, and social justice.

Our organisation is driven by a diverse community of young people who lead social action projects, supported by Junior Trustees, staff, and the Board of Trustees. We offer opportunities for youth leadership, advocacy, and public speaking, enabling young people to advocate for themselves and shape policy and practice both on a local and national basis.

Through the promotion of our films in schools and youth groups, we inspire a wider network of young people to think more deeply about ongoing inequalities. We also engage policymakers to consider how to bring these issues into the public consciousness and tackle them proactively.

Integrate UK has influenced national policies on FGM, extremism, racism, and Islamophobia, with young people playing key roles in shaping these discussions through collaboration with policymakers, schools, and media outlets. Young people have also been invited to speak at high profile events, influencing policy makers and politicians both nationally and internationally, and by sharing their perspectives, have shaped conversations around safeguarding and inequalities.
