Youth Climate Leaders Program 2024 - Participant Expression of Interest 
The Tasmanian Youth Climate Leaders Program supports young people (aged 10-18 years) to build capacity to take action on climate change. The program runs between March and September each year, and involves students working with their peers to gain a greater understanding of climate change and deliver a climate action project.

Central to the program are twice yearly conferences held in the North, North West and South of the state. All program participants are encouraged to attend both conferences in their region, with the supervision of a teacher or equivalent adult. These conferences bring together students from their region, and provide a space for students to explore climate science, climate change issues and types of climate action through connecting with their peers, mentorship, participating in workshops and sharing ideas. Topics explored include biodiversity, food security, transport, energy, climate justice, health and the circular economy. 

This year the conferences will be held on:
  • South – Friday 15 March and Tuesday 17 September 2024. The first conference will be at the University Centre, University of Tasmania, Sandy Bay. 
  • North West – Monday 18 March and Thursday 19 September 2024. The first conference will be held at the Point @ West Park Oval, Burnie.
  • North – Tuesday 19 March and Friday 20 September 2024. The first conference will be held at Ravenswood Heights Primary School, Ravenswood.

Students nominated to participate in this program should have an interest in climate and sustainability related issues, have a willingness to learn more and gain the skills to take action in their organisation or communities, and be identified as an emerging or potential youth leader in their organisation. 

Teachers or equivalent supervising adults should nominate students to participate in the program. To express your interest for a student or group of students to participate in the program, please complete the form below.
