Young humanitarians coordinator

Young Humanitarians | Karawhiua! aims to improve lives by inspiring rangatahi | young people to act on the humanitarian issues they care about through volunteering. The programme consists of six modules on topics like climate change, nuclear war, inclusion, and migration and are linked to local volunteering opportunities.

Volunteer as a young humanitarians coordinator and serve behind the scenes to help bring the programme to life.
