Your say, your way: Influence the Youth Action Plan (part 2!)
Are you a 12-to-24-year-old living in the Waimakariri District? ๐คฉ
Do you work with local youth? ๐ฉ๐ซ
Are you the parent or caregiver of a young person? ๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐ฆ
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you are in the right place! We’re back to talk all things Youth Action Plan - and this time we want to know if we got it right โ
Between May and July last year, we asked Waimakariri youth to tell us what it’s like being a young person in our district. This included issues of importance, challenges, and aspirations for the future. We heard from over 1100 Waimakariri youth, that’s massive!๐ฎ
Based on what we heard, we have drafted a three-year Youth Action Plan for 2026-2029, and now we want to know what you think. We want to hear everything - the good, the bad, and everything in between ๐คธโ๏ธ
Have a read through the Draft Plan and give us feedback by filling in the following survey before the 18th of March! ๐ฅณ
