Year of Youth Leadership 2024

This year marks 15 years of Council's Young Leaders program

Recent youth engagement (over the last 12-24 months) has highlighted a desire to see even greater diversity reflected amongst local community leaders, notably ensuring these types of opportunities are offered to young people.

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.

The project seeks to highlight our diverse community youth leaders, their stories, and the positive impact the program has played in helping shape their future leadership journey. A selection of these stories and testimonies has been collated presented via a windows exhibition at Harmony Square, an online video series and a podcast.
