Join the Squad! Co-Design our new Youth Strategy! 

If you're aged 16-25 living, working, studying or just hanging out in Moyne and Warrnambool, we want  you to join our Youth Co-Design Panel (YCP)! 

Together, we're on a mission to cook up something seriously cool; a brand new Youth Strategy for our region.

Picture this: you and up to 19 other rad individuals partnering up with Moyne Shire and Warrnambool City Councils to design a strategy that's all about you. We're talking modern, responsive, and totally inclusive. Our goal? To make sure every young voice is heard loud and clear.

Our aim is to create a panel that represents the diversity of young people in Moyne and Warrnambool, in a safe and inclusive space. This is not a skills or experienced based panel, your qualifications, education and experiences are NOT part of the eligibility criteria!

Oh, and did we mention? You'll get paid $35 an hour for your time and killer ideas. Yup, you read that right - get paid to make a difference!

So, if you're up to the challenge and ready to make a difference in your community, hit us up and let's get this party started! It's time to shape the future together!

Why do we need a Youth Co-Design Panel?

Council needs to hear from young people so we can make sure your ideas and perspectives are being considered in the decision-making process. We want to create an inclusive and sustainable community for both current and future generations, and we need you involved to make sure we are on the right track. 

What is a Youth Strategy?

A Youth Strategy is a plan that focuses on addressing the specific needs, priorities, and aspirations of young people, ensuring their voices are heard and their concerns are addressed in community development efforts, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and empowering environment for youth participation and growth.

What's Involved?

Members of the YCP will meet up for workshops between June and November. We're talking a max of five sessions, up to 15 hours. And the best part? Sessions will be a mix of in-person and online.

Here's the lowdown:

  • Dive into some background material (don't worry, we'll keep it interesting)
  • Show up for every workshop (we promise it'll be worth it!)
  • Be ready to listen up, share your thoughts, and bounce ideas with the crew
  • Team up with us to cook up recommendations that'll shake things up for the young peeps of Moyne and Warrnambool

So what are you waiting for? Register your interest now and let's make some magic happen together!
