Design Your Future 1

Do you want to shape the Auckland you want to live in? 

Join us for an interactive workshop where rangatahi come together to imagine the Auckland they want to live in by 2035. Explore what makes the city feel like home, share your ideas for better transport, housing, climate action, and community spaces, and learn how local government decisions shape your day-to-day life.

Let’s co-create a youth vision for Auckland that will be shared with local leaders and mayoral candidates. No experience needed – just bring your ideas, energy, and curiosity.

What to Expect:

Welcome & Vision building – Connect with other young people and share what matters most to you and your community.

The power of local government – Learn how Auckland Council works, what powers they have, and how decisions shape everyday life.

Table Talks – Build your ideal Auckland using maps, story cards, and challenge scenarios to spark big ideas.

Reflection – Share your ideas, and leave a message for local leaders.

Who Can Come?

• Anyone curious about shaping the future of Auckland

• No prior experience in civic engagement needed

Food & Drinks: Tea, coffee, fruit, and biscuits provided.

Come curious. Leave empowered. Let’s design the Auckland we deserve.
