Last month, we hosted our annual Townsville Conference in partnership with James Cook University!

This year marked our largest regional conference to date, with more than 80 students from across North Queensland attending the weekend.

Delegates participated in a range of activities, including workshops, an Evatt Competition round and the Local Conference of Youth (LCOY). Students also heard from Janice Rodrigues, the 2026 Australian Youth Representative to the United Nations, who led an in-depth consultation on the issues that matter most to young people. The insights gathered will contribute to Australia’s youth voice at the United Nations later this year.

A huge thank you to our facilitators who volunteered their time to make the weekend such a meaningful and engaging experience. Congratulations also to our convenor Ethan Burton for delivering a fantastic regional conference.

We’re already looking forward to returning to Townsville next year!

To celebrate International Women’s Day, UN Youth QLD is hosting WoMUN, a day catered for young women with an interest or passion in international relations, gender equality, and intersectionality. WoMUN aims to foster a safe and comfortable environment for young women in high school to develop their skills in public speaking, diplomacy, and negotiation, and to explore the importance of intersectional feminism. Our theme for WoMUN is ‘Balancing the Scales’; feminism and gender equality cannot happen without an intersectional approach to rights, justice and action.

For our first session of the day, delegates will have the opportunity to hear from a panel of exceptional women who all actively champion intersectional feminism. The delegates will have time to ask their own questions of the panellists and gain insight into their respective fields and their views on feminism and intersectionality. Our second session of the day will be a workshop, where delegates will have the opportunity to interact with one another, explore the role of feminism in international and domestic spaces, and learn about the importance of intersectional feminism. The day will conclude with a model United Nations focused on addressing current women’s issues, offering these young women the space to discuss and tackle complex problems.

Registrations are open, in the link in our bio!
