Speak Out for Change Multicultural Launch
The South East Corridor Youth Partnership Project’s Speak Out for Change: Youth Voices on Youth Issues Summit was a one day Youth2Youth consultation held in April 2015 where the Youth Leadership Roundtable (YLR) – a group of inspiring young leaders from throughout the Perth community – facilitated workshops to engage their peers in discussions and debates around pertinent youth issues that young people currently face in their communities.
Our Official Launch of the Summit Report would not be complete without the presence of these young participants and their families. The Youth Leadership Roundtable would like to invite you to this Multicultural community launch on Saturday 19th of December from 12:30PM-3:30PM at the Lyal Richardson Hall in Gosnells, with lunch provided or feel free to bring a multicultural dish to share.
Please RSVP by the 17th of December, by contacting Anania Tagaro, Senior Project Officer, Save the Children Australia on 08 9267 3908 or at anania.tagaro@savethechildren.org.au
