The Year of Youth Leadership project is an exploration of just some of the 300 plus remarkable young people who have participated in the program over the last 15 years. In celebration, we captured and produced a three-part video series of profiles of former Young Leaders to increase visibility of diverse young leaders in Greater Dandenong. The videos showcase the program’s Alumni including where they are now, and their personal reflections and learnings.
