Programmes

Every young person deserves the chance to learn, grow, and explore their interests in a way that excites and challenges them. That’s what Foróige’s Programmes are all about – hands-on, interactive experiences that help young people develop real skills for life.

From leadership and digital skills to climate justice and personal development, our programmes are shaped by what young people want to learn and how they want to learn it. They’re not like school – no tests, no note-taking, just engaging, practical activities that build confidence, independence, and knowledge.

Led by trained staff and volunteers, and supported by external experts where needed, our programmes run in communities across Ireland. Thousands of young people take part each year, gaining skills, making connections, and discovering what they’re capable of.
