Mentor Program
The YEC mentor program is for older students (typically Yr 9-10) within the YEC to enhance their leadership skills by gaining some experience with mentoring other members of the YEC. This has the added benefit of continuing the inclusive and supportive culture of young people taking action for sustainability, whilst also transitioning older members onto other things beyond the YEC.
"I have absolutely loved my role as a mentor, and being able to be a friend to people, to help everyone feel included. I've also loved seeing so many kids so passionate about the environment and broadening my knowledge and feeling inspired to make change"
