Policy Positions
The Youth Coalition also develops policy positions on a range of issues. These policy positions are based on our Policy Principles and developed and confirmed in conjunction with our members. These policy positions are compiled in our Policy Platform that is updated bi-annually at our Policy Conference.
Policy Platform
The Youth Coalition's Policy Platform is a key document that informs and guides the organisation in its work. The Policy Platform also documents a range of issues facing both young people and those who work with them in the ACT and is a resource that can provide an overview of particular issues and topics to those who have an interest in youth affairs.
