The Youth Innovation Conference is an exciting opportunity to widen the conversation surrounding young people’s views, aspirations and issues. The current youth offer is influenced by an adult led or institutional agenda, we aim to address this imbalance by involving young people and professionals in co-produced solutions to many of the pressing issues that young people face today. Young people want their voices and imaginations to influence change. The Youth Innovation Conference provides an opportunity to harness young people’s energy and sense of optimism to develop innovative solutions for services that affect young people and communities.
