Draft Northern Territory Youth Strategy 2023-2033
Consultation has concluded
The Northern Territory Government (NTG) is committed to developing a Northern Territory (NT) Youth Strategy (the Strategy) and is asking Territorians what they think should be included and what the Strategy should achieve.
What will the Strategy do?
The Strategy will describe what is needed for a Northern Territory where young people lead enjoyable lives, are empowered to achieve their full potential, are socially connected and are positive participants in their community.
The Strategy will:
- take a whole of government approach
- be youth-led
- create a roadmap to engage, equip, empower and enable young Territorians
- outline NTG’s work, commitment, investment and plans to support young people
- identify opportunities and gaps, and develop actions.
