Youth Organised and United

A youth lobby group has been set up.  I’m always a big advocate of young people getting involved in politics, regardless of what side they are on.

Youth Organised and United’ is a new political lobby group; aimed at getting young people’s voices heard by society’s decision-makers.

A group of representatives will visit Wellington on the 5th and 6th of December to meet with parliamentarians responsible for youth portfolios, ministers with a youth overview and representatives of other youth organisations.

We want to empower young people to get their voices heard. To do this, we see it as imperative that young people are, in equal measure, united and organized.

YOU is a national organization with youth active in every region listening to the views and opinions of a wide spectrum of youth. These views can then be discussed nationally and action can be taken.

They have a blog also.
