Youth Civic Participation Project

The Wyndham Youth Civic Participation Project is for people aged 18 – 25 with an interest in how the country is governed.

The project is for Wyndham’s aspiring lawyers, policy makers and community leaders who would like to see behind the curtain of Local, State and Federal politics and government.

Participants will have to opportunity to speak with Councillors, senior public servants, and council staff members, about their responsibilities in government.

Along with completing the program with like-minded young people, participants will visit Wyndham City Council, spend a day at Parliament House Victoria and travel to Canberra for a 4 day tour, visiting Parliament House, Museum of Australian Democracy, High Court of Australia and the Australian War Museum.

Acknowledgement of Traditional Custodians

Wyndham City Council recognises Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first Peoples of Australia. We acknowledge the Bunurong and Wadawurrung Peoples as Traditional Owners of the lands on which Wyndham City operates. The Wadawurrung and Bunurong Peoples have and always will belong to the Werribee Yalook (river), creeks, stars, hills and red clay of this Country. We pay respect to their Ancestors and Elders who always have, and always will, care for Country and community today and for future generations.
