Cairns NAIDOC Youth Leadership Forum

The Cairns NAIDOC Youth Leadership Forum is to be held at St Mary's Catholic College on Thursday 17th July. It is a dynamic gathering designed to empower Indigenous youth in junior secondary years (Years 7 to 9). 

Rooted in the rich heritage of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, this forum serves as a platform for young leaders to explore their potential, connect with peers, and ignite positive change in their communities.

Through a blend of interactive workshops, engaging activities, and thought-provoking discussions, participants delve into topics ranging from cultural identity and leadership development and personal growth. Led by passionate facilitators, attendees are encouraged to embrace their unique talents, celebrate their heritage, and envision a future filled with possibilities.

At the heart of the NAIDOC Youth Leadership Forum 2024 lies a commitment to fostering resilience, confidence, and a sense of belonging among Indigenous youth. By providing a safe and inclusive space for learning, sharing, and collaboration, we aim to empower the next generation of leaders to navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and make a lasting impact in their schools, communities, and beyond.

Join us as we embark on this journey of discovery, empowerment, and inspiration. Together, let's keep the fire burning and pave the way for a brighter future for all Indigenous youth.
