Overview

Northern Territory Youth Week is the single largest celebration of young Territorians aged 12 to 25 years, seeking to promote a positive view of young people and recognise their skills, attributes and positive impact in their community. NT Youth Week 2025 is scheduled for 4 to 16 April 2025.

• Provide opportunities for young people aged 12 to 25 years to express their ideas and views, raise issues of concern to them and act on issues that affect their lives.
• Provide opportunities for the wider community to listen to young people and acknowledge and celebrate the positive contributions that young people make to their local communities.
• Promote a community focus on issues of concern to young people.
• Ensure that activities are accessible for all young people.

• Exciting and creative ideas designed with a youth-centric approach which provide safe and secure entertainment opportunities during NT Youth Week 2025, provide youth-friendly engagement, and involve young people at all levels.
• Programs which encourage the development of skills and attributes such as self-esteem, cooperation and trust for young people.
• Programs which encourage the active participation of young individuals in both the planning and delivery stages.
• Wages or salaries for course providers (e.g. instructors) up to 50% of the total request amount of the grant, only if required for the facilitation of an event or activity. This does not include wages or salary paid to your organisation’s staff during usual core business hours and must relate to the program or event.
