Young Leaders Forum
Young Leaders Forum
Time 11 October · 10:00 - 15:00Location DeakinPrime Bourke Street
Melbourne, Australia
More info:
Deakin University’s "Social Networks & Belonging" project is looking for young leaders from African, Arabic, and Pacific Islander backgrounds aged from 15-25 to take part in a one-day forum on Tuesday 11th October 2011.
The event will include activities, guest speakers, facilitated discussions, and more.
The “Social Networks, Belonging and Active Citizenship among Migrant youth in Australia” project is a four year, national re...search project that seeks to learn more about migrant youth and social networks. The project is investigating the ways in which young people of Arab, Pacific Islander and African backgrounds develop a sense of social connectedness and belonging in Australia.
The findings will improve our understanding of the challenges faced by migrant young people, and the ways they cope with these challenges. We are committed to ensuring that research findings translate into practical recommendations for service providers. The findings will be shared through collaborative symposiums, workshops and policy recommendations.
The participants in the October forum are a vital element in ensuring that this project is reflective of the contemporary viewpoints and experience of young migrant leaders living in Australia today.
