We’re bringing youth co-lab to the Democracy Innovation Festival!
Join us for an interactive session exploring the many pathways to contribute to democracy as a young person – led by you.
The session will include:
a panel discussion with guests who have navigated different pathways to contribute to change, inside and outside of traditional political spaces.
a workshop exploring your ideas on how systems can better include and represent young people.
opportunities to hear from existing programs, groups or organisations focused on helping young people get informed about or contribute to democratic processes.
🗓️ Date: Monday 17 August
🕑 Time: 2 – 6 pm
📍 Location: Pridham Hall, Adelaide University
If you have any questions about the session, or youth co-lab, you can get in contact with our Senior Project Officer, Doug via email at doug@yacsa.com.au
What is youth co-lab?
youth co-lab is a space for young people aged 17–25 who are already making a difference in their community and want to take their impact further.
You might be involved in a youth advisory group, a leadership or student leadership program, or driving something independently on issues you care about. However you’re showing up, this is a place to connect with others doing the same.
YACSA’s youth co-lab brings together a network of passionate young people who are making a difference to connect, share experiences, and support one another – so you can stay energised and impactful in your work.
It’s not a fixed group, so you’re welcome to come along for every session, or just sign up when the topic feels like a good fit, it’s all about whatever works best for you.
youth co-lab sessions are hosted in person, but if sign up to the mailing list if you’re living in a regional area to help us gauge interest for more in the future!
youth co-lab: for young people already making moves.
