NYR 2008 - Indi youth invited to apply - Sophie Mirabella

Sophie Mirabella, the Federal Member for Indi, today called on young people from North-Eastern Victoria to apply for a place in the National Youth Roundtable 2008.

“The Roundtable is an ideal opportunity for young people, aged 15 to 24 years, in our community to meet with Government representatives and other youth to address issues important to them,” Mrs Mirabella said.

“It is important that we have a wide range of young people involved in the Roundtable and that is why I am encouraging youth with a range of experiences and from diverse backgrounds, including Indigenous young people, to apply.”

“As a member of the Roundtable, participants will have a chance to meet and work with other motivated young people who are passionate about youth issues.”

“They will also develop skills in team work, problem solving, research, negotiation, interviewing, project management and leadership.”

“I call on local young people in Indi to get involved in the National Youth Roundtable 2008 and submit their applications by Thursday, 18 October 2007,” Mrs Mirabella said.
