YACVic's Reshape Our Future youth forums are finally happening and coming to Warrnambool and the Great South Coast!

The youth forum is a fun, free and powerful event for young people aged 12-25 to have your say on what matters to you and make new friends who care about the same things as you.

After lockdowns kept us physically apart, it’s so important now more than ever for a space where young people can come together, learn and take action to Reshape Our Future together.

Melbourne: 10 June, Melbourne Museum

Acknowledgement of Country and Cultural Safety

We are committed to respecting this lore and creating a culturally safe event space.

Reshape Our Future will take place across the lands of the Aboriginal nations within Victoria and we pay our respects to Elders past and present. Bunjil’s lore states that those who walk on this land must care for the Country and waterways as well as for the children and young people. This always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
