Youth involvement/engagement

www.korumburra.vic.au
The Korumburra community website was initially developed by the Year 9's of the local school as part of their curriculum. This opportunity provided real experience for kids to enhance their CV’s.

The process engaged the youth with their community as they sourced all of the businesses and community organisation's details in their area.A benefit of this to the Korumburra community is not only helping the youth but this meant extra help with no cost in developing the website.

www.wycheproof.vic.au utilised their local students for website accessibility guidelines through the website process.Most community groups struggle with website accessibility guidelines - the students not only learnt about website accessibility, but the website group succeeded in overcoming accessibility challenges.

www.glenmaggie.vic.au- The Lake Glenmaggie Community Representative Group have organised a youth survey on their website to better gauge the needs of the youth in the community.  The survey also asks if youth volunteers would like to put there hands up to coordinate a youth page on the Glenmaggie website.
