“MYAN will never do for young people, what they can do for themselves. We see young people as genuine partners in all we do.”
— Annukina Warda, CEO
Our Coffee Connect program is an informal youth program where young people can grow their social network in a relaxed environment facilitated by trained professionals.
We deliver free skills workshops designed to empower and connect young people with both peers and social services. Our free group-based skills sessions focus on supporting young people to develop creative and professional skills training (e.g., resume writing, public speaking).
Our Peer2Peer Schools Engagement Program is a series of peer-led workshops for High School students. Our team develops skills and shares knowledge with newly arrived students to assist them to settle well in Australia.
Students engage in conversations about Australian history and culture, emergency preparedness, Aussie slang, employment rights, opportunities to volunteer and a range of other topics designed and delivered by young people with a lived experience of forcible displacement.
The Culture Lab Alumni Network is a dynamic and inclusive community designed to empower emerging community leaders as they continue to make an impact in their communities. This space fosters connection, collaboration, and growth, where Alumni can share valuable resources, exchange opportunities, and receive ongoing support from MYAN NSW.
Elevate Young Women’s Engagement program is a culturally and gender safe space for young women and girls from culturally and linguistically diverse communities to discuss issues around relationships, love, and violence that affect them and equip them on how to respond.
