Youth engagement
Youth engagement frameworks and training
We help organisations put young people’s voices into how they design, deliver and review services, through a framework built with your young people and training that equips your staff. Scoped and quoted to fit your organisation.
- Aligned to the National Principles
- Young people involved from the start
- On site or online, Australia-wide
Two ways we can help
Build your youth engagement framework
We work with your young people and staff to design a framework that fits your organisation, drawing on consultations, co-design workshops and a review of how you involve young people now.

What building a framework involves
Every youth engagement framework we build starts with the young people it’s for.
Hear from young people
Consultations and focus groups with the young people you serve.
Design it together
Co-design workshops where young people and staff shape the framework side by side.
Check what you already do
A review of your current participation mechanisms and where they fall short.
From first conversation to working framework
Scope and quote
We agree what you need and what’s included.
Review and listen
We look at your current practice and hear from your young people.
Co-design
Young people and staff build the framework together.
Framework and handover
You receive your framework and a plan for putting it into practice.
Part of keeping young people safe
The National Principles for Child Safe Organisations expect children and young people to be informed, heard and involved in decisions that affect them. A youth engagement framework is how you show that happens in practice, not just on paper.
If you’re also checking your policies, see our child safety policy review.
