NZ Youth Week is an annual event in New Zealand that celebrates the achievements, contributions, and voices of young people.
Typically held in May, the week is a nationwide celebration organized by various youth-focused groups and government agencies. It aims to highlight the positive impact of youth, raise awareness about issues affecting young people, and promote youth engagement in community and social activities.
Each year, a specific theme is chosen to guide the focus of Youth Week activities, helping to raise awareness around a particular issue or topic that impacts young people.
The event provides a platform for youth to voice their opinions, share experiences, and collaborate with peers, community leaders, and organizations to drive positive change.
