Join AIDR and Leadrrr to hear from Upwey High School students from Victoria’s Dandenong Ranges, Dr Briony Towers and Scarlett Harrison, for a panel discussion on youth voice, agency and leadership in disaster risk reduction and resilience.
In this free 60-minute online event, students will share their insights on participatory emergency management planning, socially critical disaster resilience education, and student-led advocacy for inclusive policy and practice. The students will also discuss the key challenges to increasing youth voice, agency and leadership and the emerging opportunities for systems change at the local, state and national level.
Thriving Queensland Kids Partnership is pleased to be able to help promote this event as a shining example of current best practice in engaging young people in disaster management.
