News & Events
The Award in NZ celebrates 50 years of working with young people in 2013.
We are looking for ideas and expressions of interest from people wanting to help us celebrate this milestone in the ongoing history of The Duke of Edinburgh’s Hillary Award.
The Ministry of Youth Development is looking for young people aged 12- 24 to apply to join the new Auckland and Northland Youth Advisory Group.
The Youth Advisory Group aims to:
- provide advice and guidance to the Ministry of Youth Development (MYD) from a youth perspective
- represent a youth perspective in decision making/youth voice opportunities (e.g. presentations, funding and interview panels, representative groups)
- inform their communities of decision-making opportunities and processes for young people
- link MYD with key issues from young people
- develop the skills and experiences of its members.
