Youth Voice

Youth Voice is a participation structure, to allow young people, in a specific council area, to voice their opinions and ideas, participate in consultations and ensure that key issues are brought to the attention of the District Council. It works in partnership with the local council, establishing a group which is representative of young people across the council area, who speak on behalf of young people, offering opinions and ideas, responding to consultations, and advocating on issues they choose. Youth Voice facilitates opportunities for young people to respond to issues pertinent to their local council area and engage with the decision makers directly. They may do this by consulting with other young people, providing supportive resources for young people, advocating and campaigning where they consider it necessary, and ensure that young people make a significant contribution to community planning and associated strategic and local decisions.
