Opportunity from The Young Decision Makers Network


    The Young Decision Makers Network has an opportunity for 8 young people to come to Ottawa March 3 and March 4 to consult with 30 business leaders, health experts, and government officials from the Public Health Agency of Canada. The purpose of the consultation is to examine how technology can impact and reach youth to promote health.

    To be eligible to be selected and come to Ottawa youth are asked to fill out a short survey at www.engagementsurvey.ca/health and then fill out the application, which is under the For More Information on the header of the website.

    Youth who are selected to attend will use the information gathered from the survey of youth across Canada to prepare a presentation as a group on March 3, then present to the Forum on March 4.

    We are looking primarily for youth aged 14 to 18. Please forward this on to any friends or youth you know who might be interested in this opportunity or becoming a YDM member. You can become a member online at http://ydm.engagementcentre.ca
