Stronger Youth Strategies.
Thriving Communities.
Engaging young people in community life requires more than good intentions - it requires strategy, expertise, and lived experience in what works.
At Youth Engagement Project, we partner with councils to strengthen programs, amplify youth voice, and ensure initiatives deliver meaningful impact for young people and the wider community.
What We Offer:
Workshop & Program Observations
We observe delivery in real time - from Youth Advisory Group sessions to council-run workshops - and provide targeted, actionable feedback to help facilitators refine their approach and strengthen engagement.
Bespoke Project Consulting
From co-designing new youth strategies to advising on civic participation projects, we bring deep knowledge of the youth sector and practical strategies that ensure alignment, effectiveness, and community impact.
Program Review & Design
We review council-led youth programs and initiatives to identify strengths, gaps, and opportunities for greater impact. Our recommendations ensure content and structure are evidence-based, relevant, and authentically engage young people.
Tailored Training Plans
Following observations or reviews, we develop specific training pathways for youth officers, community engagement teams, and advisory group facilitators, ensuring growth is measurable and sustained.
