Youth Symposium
The Youth Symposium, launched in October 2023, encourages young people aged 14–25 to engage in active citizenship and discuss issues important to them. To date, various meetings have been held, many in a Q&A format with the Minister for Youth, giving young people a direct voice in decision-making. These discussions have led to targeted initiatives, including social and educational trips, and have highlighted key themes such as mental health, education and employment pathways, inclusion, equality, and safe social spaces.

The programme helps participants build creative and professional skills while developing a portfolio in a supportive environment. GYPT supports young people in bridging the gap between education and employment through practical, real-world experience.
