In 2024, PROJECT ROCKIT expanded its youth-driven and participatory approaches by establishing the NATIONAL YOUTH COLLECTIVE. This initiative grew from projects developed within the organisation during COVID-19, supported by the PROJECT ROCKIT Foundation and nearly two decades of experience working collaboratively with young people. The NATIONAL YOUTH COLLECTIVE was formed through an application process designed to include a diverse range of young people, ensuring their lived experiences could shape the organisation's work. In April, 32 young Australians aged 12–21 came together to explore new possibilities for the future. This document showcases the first 8 months of their efforts.
