MANLY 1ST – YOUTH STRATEGY
Youth has been particularly impacted by Covid. Many of the rites of passage for our youth has been lost over the last two years. Youth are a huge asset not a basket of problems.
Manly 1st approach to valuing the contribution our youth make to the community will be by providing;
Voice – young people want a say in their community and in particular with issues impacting on their lives. They want a ‘seat at the table’ and be included in decisions. Youth want a sense of agency to shape their lives. Manly 1st will strengthen the Northern Beaches Youth Council. It will ensure Council takes a stronger approach in giving youth a voice by constantly engaging with youth and providing avenues for youth to have a voice.
Connection – young people want to be connected to friends, family, community and culture. This strengthens their identity and sense of self. Manly 1st will promote youth-centered and community events, develop, promote and support youth centered programs and services, spaces and activities that build connection, and does so by engaging young people first.
Purpose – young people want to be engaged in things that provide them with meaning and purpose in their lives. They want to be part of something that gives their life value. This will be provided through youth engagement in the planning, resourcing and promotion of youth centered events and spaces, volunteering opportunities, and opportunities to be part of Council Committees and the decision-making process.
