What to expect

YACVic are currently undergoing the process of upgrading two of our key sector-leading resources: Youth Engagement Resource Platform (YERP) and the Code of Ethical Practice for the Victoria Youth Sector (the Code). These resources aim to ensure that young people and the youth sector can work together in a safe and effective way.

If you have been or are involved in youth services, programs or events you know what it takes to include young people in a safe and meaningful way and we want to hear your insights, experiences and ideas.

You don't need to have prior knowledge of YERP or the Code, just have an interest in youth participation and the youth sector!

This interactive session will use the platform Miro to allow you to participate in a range of different activities. Along with your ticket you, will be sent instructions on how to use Miro, please create an account on Miro prior to the session. 

If you cannot make the session but would like to be involved please complete the survey for young people.

Some topics we cover

  • How you engage in your community 
  • Barriers to participating in programs and events for young people 
  • Safety, Cultural Safety & Intersectionality 
  • Ideas for workers and the youth sector

We will cover other topics relevant to the sector and your work with young people.

Who should attend

This event is open to young people aged 15 - 25 living in Victoria.
