About

We are the RISE Collective. Through creative arts and media we build collectives of young people who are at the forefront of social change, creating their own futures. We run skills development projects, produce live events, podcasts, offer mentorship, training, work experience, employment, training and networking opportunities, involving young people throughout everything we do. Amplify is RISE’s podcast and live events strand, co-designed, produced, hosted and curated by young people.  It is an expression of our times; thought-provoking, political, confronting, powerful, funny, creative and hopeful. Amplify | The Podcast came about as a direct result of all live events being cancelled at the beginning of the Coronavirus pandemic. Each series is produced by the next generation of producers and creatives - curating their own episodes with an overarching theme.
