SOUTH COAST CHANGEMAKERS FORUM

The South Coast Changemakers Forum is a 3 day camp for young people aged 14 - 17 to connect, learn and design their own projects for positive change for the South Coast.

The Forum provides young people with the opportunity to connect, develop skills and positive change networks in the community.

As part of the Forum, participants take part in the Changemaker Challenge. Over 3 days they design and pitch projects for positive change. Participants are then given the opportunity to go on to complete their ideas in the Changemakers Program.
