The National Youth Homelessness Conference 2021 (NYHC) takes place on June 15th – 16th. The event will be online and is organised with the aim to develop a National Strategy to End Youth Homelessness.
The focus for conference discussions and post-conference actions will be a joint NGO sector-Government task-force and consultation process to develop the National Strategy to End Youth Homelessness. This will not be the product of a particular organisation or government. Instead it aims to be a joint NGO-Government strategy that will serve as a reference for the planning and implementation of state and territory governments.
In 2019 the National Youth Homelessness Conference was held in March in Melbourne. Our Patron, Professor Brian Burdekin, AO was the Keynote Speaker and our CEO, Justene Gordon was one of nine panelists. You can read more about their contributions here.
The National Youth Homelessness Conference 2021 is organised by Youth Development Australia and National Youth Commission Australia. This year, NYHC 2021 Speakers will include leading international and Australian experts in the field, front line service providers, educators, employers, young people sharing lived experience, and more. Our Patron, Professor Brian Burdekin, AO will be one of the speakers.
Early bird tickets are available now as well as concession rates for anyone aged 30 years and under, and concession cardholders.
