OUR WORK WITH YOUNG PEOPLE
MYAN engages young people from around Australia, inclusive of regional areas, through state/territory youth advisory structures. We support young people to represent the rights and interests of young people from refugee and migrant backgrounds nationally and internationally. We do this by appointing and supporting the National Youth Ambassadors Network and hosting the national multicultural youth leadership summit, FUSE.

Supported through MYAN Australia and our state and territory partners, YAN members are active advocates and actors working to influence the national agenda for young people from refugee and migrant backgrounds.
Youth CaLD Disability Collective (YCDC)
YCDC work with organisations, groups and community members by using their lived experiences to offer training, consultations, public speaking and advocacy.
