Young People Getting a Good Wrap: Aaron Koo, AIESEC Curtin University

Aaron Koo, AIESEC Curtin University

My name is Aaron Koo and I am currently the Outgoing Exchange Director for AIESEC Curtin University.

My organisation offers students the chance to go overseas to work on volunteer projects on social issues and environmental sustainability.

We give Australia youth the opportunity to make a different in the world and develop their cultural understanding for their personal development.

Last year I went to China to teach High School students about Social Entrepreneurship. There were many other applicants who went to Malaysia to volunteers in a children's orphanage.

These are a few examples of the impact that we are trying to have in the world.

Young People Getting a Good Wrap

Young people too often get a bad wrap in the media and the community. But we know that young people around the country and the dedicated workers who support them are doing fantastic things, that need to be recognised. 'Young People Getting a Good Wrap' is an opportunity for young people, youth workers, youth services and community members to share positive messages about young people and the youth sector. This project is run by the Australian Youth Affairs Coalition Australia's, National Peak Body for young people and the sector that supports them.

Get Involved!

All you need to do is take a photo of yourself holding a positive message about young people or a message about what your service contributes to the Australian community . It's that easy, make sure your message is clearly legible and feel free to send us some information about yourself to be included on the blog! When you're done email it through to policy@ayac.org.au for uploading! Encourage friends, co-workers family members, politicians, pretty much anyone - to get involved and share their positive messages about young people.
