Korero Palmerston North 2019

Our Sizzle Video for Korero 2019, as well as the full recording of the panel discussion, can be found on our Facebook page HERE.

Saturday 23 March 2019

Kōrero is a forum for young people to discuss and debate the most pressing global challenges and opportunities for young people today. It is also a forum for adults and decision makers to hear where our young people would like our resources directed.

Palmerston North is the fourth town to host Kōrero. This Kōrero, with live polling and commentary is destined to be the most interactive and engaging.

Our hope is that through Kōrero, a genuine and tangible interaction, networks developed and strengthened, insights are shared, voices are heard, and opportunities are created.

Topics of discussion to include

• How can we make Palmerston North a more attractive and welcoming place to the world?

• How can cities and local organisations get young people more involved in planning & research? (i.e. how to open up for direct involvement of young researchers)

• Questions from the audience
