 Everyday
in communities around the world, youth
activists, youth workers and educators are looking for
powerful, purposeful activities that can change the world.
At the same time, young people want to connect with
adults in powerful relationships where they can actually
change the world. The Guide to Cooperative Games for Social Change
provides a resource for people who want more from youth
activities.
The Guide
features a powerful introduction to cooperative games,
carefully detailing their relevance for activists and
educators. It continues to provide clear, concise summaries
of more than two dozen activities, including icebreakers, "funners,"
and closers. Each description details exactly how the
activity can be facilitated, as well as the equipment, time,
and space needed.
Since 2003 this document has been
downloaded more than 10,000 times from The Freechild Project
website. This revision features a clean, crisp layout and a
fast download. Also, for the first time Freechild's parent
organization offers print versions of this booklet for
practitioners.
Youth activists, teachers, youth workers,
counselors, youth leaders, and dozens of others have
reported that the Guide to Cooperative Games for Social
Change is exactly what they need.
"I love the Guide. It is simple,
easy-to-use, and really meaningful for the youth I work

Harris, youth worker, Alberta, Canada
"Kids need more activities like these in
their lives - I use the Guide all the time!" - Kate
