The Aotearoa Youth Declaration is created by young New Zealanders from around the country who have come together to learn about issues our nation is faced with and what role we hold in combating them. The Declaration works to empower our youth to become conscious citizens, aware of the power their voices hold by challenging them to tackle New Zealand's biggest social, economic and cultural issues. This is achieved through a community of like-minded people with perspectives that will only benefit us all in the future. Each participant is assigned a focus area in which they tackle a broad spectrum of issues. In 2016, I was a member of the Education Focus Group that tackled a number issues ranging from school support systems, pedagogy and school assessment systems and processes.
