NIYEC First Nations Education Policy Online Youth Workshop 2

Join us for an youth consultation workshop to help reshape the First Nations Education Policy!

NIYEC has been engaged by the Australian Government to lead national consultations with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people aged 16–28 to help shape the new First Nations Education Policy, the first update since 1989. This is a meaningful opportunity for young mob to have a real say in a national policy that will directly influence education systems and futures.

This is our second online workshop as part of four online workshops series that we will be running whilst also visiting 5 locations across the continent. For more information please go to our website to register for these in-person workshops.

This FREE workshop will run for 1 hour and will explore the following themes:

• An introduction to the First Nations Education Policy

• Reflecting on our learning journeys and lived experiences

• Dream designing school and education futures

• Identifying the supports young people need to thrive in their learning journeys

This is a FREE workshop and a small stipend in a form of an electronic gift card will be provided for participating in the online workshop.

These workshops are open to all Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander young people aged 16–28, and you do not need to be studying or working in education to attend. All perspectives and lived experiences are welcome.

Places are limited, if spaces are filled please look to our other online workshops or in person workshops.

The zoom link and confirmation will be sent upon registering.

Any questions or concerns please reach out to Layla via layla@niyec.com

We look forward to seeing you online to help shape this policy to truly support the belonging, wellbeing and strong futures of First Nations learners.
