Draft Youth Strategy

We are inviting community members to review and provide feedback on the Draft Youth Strategy.  Council recognises the importance of listening to our community when reviewing or changing policies, strategies and plans. 

This strategy sets a clear direction for how young people (aged 12–25) are supported, show self -determination, and can actively participate now and in the future of the George Town Municipality. 

This strategy has been created and consulted by local young people to ensure they are not just considered, but engaged and active in local decision-making, events, education and employment opportunities. Importantly, pride in the community. Young people really are proud of their community and want to be part of growth opportunities. Pride of place brings people together to feel safe, co-create safe spaces and enhances the beauty in our community. Creating opportunities for learning outside of classrooms ensures ongoing learning in our community through connection, experience, and opportunity.
