THE Geelong Youth Council is still at work during the coronavirus, and used its July meeting to share insight into the experiences of young people during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
\nYouth councillors were invited to participate in a consultation process with independent statutory body, Commission for Children and Young People, which is gathering feedback about the impacts of health and social restrictions on Victoria\u2019s youth population.
\nSome of the themes raised included modifications to schooling, mental and physical health, increased use of social media and changes to daily timetables.
\nThe Youth Council\u2019s monthly meeting was held on July 13 via Zoom and started with a minute of silence to recognise Reconciliation Week.
\nThe agenda included discussions about City of Greater Geelong projects involving environmental strategy and community safety.
\nYouth councillors were also briefed about the voting process for the Geelong Youth Awards 2020, which will be announced via an online presentation on Monday, July 27.
\nThe next Youth Council meeting will be held on August 17.
\n\u201cLike everyone in the community, we\u2019re experiencing significant challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic,\u201d Junior Mayor Farzana Hussaini said.
\n\u201cYouth Council was proud to represent our peers by sharing the positive and negative impacts of
\nthe pandemic, particularly in regard to social isolation.
\n\u201cWe also thank the teams from the City of Greater Geelong who are actively seeking our advice on projects.
\n\u201cWe look forward to acknowledging young achievers in the community at the Geelong Youth Awards<\/a> next week.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
