The Global Youth Forum program is a virtual, four-session learning program for Year 9 - 10 students in Victorian and International schools. It connects students in Victoria with their peers across the Asia-Pacific to develop global citizenship, intercultural understanding, and leadership skills.
The program involves exploring global citizenship concepts and addressing 21st century challenges, proposing solutions and activities aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. At the conclusion, students will present their projects and celebrate their learning journey alongside their peers from across the Asia-Pacific.
The forums provide a 4-session virtual learning program for Victorian schools, connecting students with peers in Asia and the Pacific. The forums assist students in developing global competencies and are aligned with the Framework for Improving Student Outcomes (FISO 2.0) and the Victorian Curriculum (Civics and Citizenship, Geography, Design and Technologies and the Victorian Capabilities), including global citizenship, intercultural understanding, collaboration, and leadership skills.
Open to all Victorian Year 9 - 10 Students. Up to 10 students per school.
