Youth Action Group

The Youth Action Group is for young people who are interested in getting more involved in the development of CYEC and taking action on Commonwealth projects.

“Taking minutes, chairing meetings, fundraising, speaking – it’s been a great and continuous learning process and has given me huge personal confidence and the skills that will help me in my working life. I know I can do a lot of things with my life.”

We are a network of young people who have completed youth exchanges, taken part in youth forums or simply have an interest in the Commonwealth.

We come together to:

• Feed into the future development of CYEC;
• Plan events for young people to share their experiences and have a say on Commonwealth issues; and
• Promote the role of young people in the Commonwealth.

Four young people from the Youth Action Group sit on the CYEC Trustee Board.
