Building tomorrow's ethnic leaders in government
Building tomorrow's ethnic leaders in government
The Office of Ethnic Affairs is launching a pilot programme offering leadership and vocational training to nine young people from ethnic communities.
The Young Leaders and Collaborators Auckland Pilot Programme aims to help build tomorrow's ethnic leaders in government.
Training modules will include:
· advocacy and public speaking
· machinery of government and diversity training
· project management and delivery
· volunteering opportunities
· media training
· networking with peers and role models
· job shadowing opportunities in government departments, and career guidance.
The programme is to be piloted in Auckland in 2012, with the aim of rolling it out nationally from 2013.
We are seeking applications from Auckland-based ethnic youth aged 16-24 to join the programme.
The deadline for applications is 22 June 2012.
