Defence 2020 Youth Challenge 2009 - Canberra

From May until July 2009 a Youth Challenge program will be staged in all states and territories throughout Australia.

The Challenge will bring together young Australians, politicians, ADF personnel (many of whom will have direct and recent peacekeeping experience) and community representatives to explore many of the issues surrounding defence and Australia’s future.

Year’s 9-11 students will benefit most from the Youth Challenge Program, as it is particularly relevant to SOSE/HSIE, Citizenship Education and English curriculum areas.

Schools will be invited to nominate 8 students and numbers are restricted to around 120 students to ensure all participants can be involved in this very interactive program.
