Youth Parliament
Every three years, about 140 young New Zealanders experience Parliament as Youth MPs and Youth Press Gallery members. It is their chance to advocate for their generation’s views and concerns and to look behind the curtains of Parliament. Find out what this means below!
Youth Parliament is an opportunity for young New Zealanders to learn first-hand about New Zealand’s democracy and to influence decision making. Youth Parliament replicates the real Parliament as close as possible.
Meet the Youth Parliament 2016 participants! On 10 November 2015, Minister for Youth Hon Nikki Kaye announced the 121 Youth MPs and the 17 Youth Press Gallery members.
During Youth Parliament 2016, there were great opportunities to get involved. Ten Select Committee reports were presented to Youth Parliament by the ten Youth MP chairs.
