National Youth Education Event
THE MISSION
The National Youth Education Event is the coming together of young
activists over the course of a weekend to meet colleagues old and
new, learn new skills, share their experiences and have a positive
impact in the way that the union communicates and interacts with
its young members.
THE NEXT STEPS
The weekend will give participants the enthusiasm, confidence and
tools to go back to their branches and deal with the ever
increasing pressures on their union time.
STAYING INVOLVED
The weekend will enable participants to join a growing community
that is CWU Youth. They will leave the event knowing that they have
support not only from their branches, regions and head office, but
also a large national network that is there to help and advise
should situations arise that require it.
KEEP COMING BACK
The success of the weekend has seen young activists return year
after year and they are very welcome. It is not just a one-time
only event - keep coming back. There is always something new to
learn, someone new to meet and 12 months of experiences to relay
back to colleagues.
