Young People Creating Change Toolkit

The Young People Creating Change Toolkit is a resource developed by the Australian Youth Affairs Coalition (AYAC) and revised in partnership with the Multicultural Youth Advocacy Network (MYAN). It is designed to help youth workers and facilitators conduct a two-day training course on advocacy and campaigning for young people, particularly those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. It provides sessions on key topics such as advocacy basics, planning campaigns, stakeholder consultation, and using storytelling in advocacy. The toolkit focuses on experiential learning, enabling participants to develop practical advocacy skills while exploring their own experiences and beliefs, with an emphasis on inclusivity and empowering youth to create meaningful change in their communities.
