Youth engagement: Tips and ideas to support young people to create change!

Tips and ideas to support young people workbook offers a step-by-step guide that walks you through all the things to think about when initiating a youth engagement project. Leave out the stress and have fun!

How to co-design for wiser action! If you have attended one of retreats or workshops, or not overly familiar with the co-design process, we have developed a facilitator guide to walk you through how-to co-design. This workbook will guide you get ideas onto paper and then in action. This workbook is a great place to start if you're just getting the hang of project design or if you are collaborating  with other people and organisations.

Ready to run a project and hit the ground running? These project templates will be useful.

Project design template : This template will help you craft your project in detail, keep all your contacts in one place, address safety concerns and manage your success and outcomes. Keep everything you need to know, who you need to contact, and what you need to do (including back up contingencies!) in the one place with this template.

Media release template : Download our media release template to help you reach out to your local media to promote your project. Once written this can go out to local newspapers, radio stations and other outlets to get the word out there, your project is coming and it will be awesome.

Model release form : If you plan to take any photos or film your event, you will need to get people's permission to use it down the track. Download this form to help capture this info.

Volunteer registration form : While not compulsory to capture this on each and every volunteer, we think it is important that you capture details in case of emergencies and so you can maintain an effective database of your volunteers. Please note you will need to securely store any personal information of volunteers, so please check relevant privacy legislation and comply with these requirements.
