- Youth Week WA 2024 will be launched in Albany from 5 April 2024
- The theme for this year is ‘Head, Body, Heart’
Youth Minister Hannah Beazley has announced Youth Week WA 2024 celebrations will be launched in Albany on 5 April 2024.
Youth Week WA is the single largest annual celebration of young people in Western Australia, and this year’s opening festivities will be hosted by the City of Albany.
Youth Week is planned through the Young People Planning Committee – which includes four Youth Week ambassadors – who have chosen this year’s theme ‘Head, Body, Heart’.
The theme guides the intentions of Youth Week events and activities, and is a reminder to check in with our head, body and heart, as well as extending that care to others.
Youth Week’s theme and activities aim to promote creativity, compassion, and encourage us to be our best and most authentic selves.
A wide variety of youth-led events are held throughout the State during Youth Week – including the annual KickstART Festival, presented by Propel Youth Arts WA.
The 2024 Youth Ambassadors are Fatima Merchant, Nathida Chalermsuk, Samuel Thomas and Izabella Brandis.
Youth Week events and projects are funded through the Department of Communities, Propel Youth Arts, Lotterywest, and the WA Government’s Youth Week WA grants program.
