Who are we?
DEVYAG is an advisory group that aims to represent young people aged between 14 and 18 years who live, work, study and/or socialise in the city of Devonport.
Mission Statement
To see the youth in Devonport represented and promote positive change in the community.
What we do?
We are a proactive community that wants to see positive change in Devonport. We see ourselves as a voice for the youth in the city.
Why are we here?
We want to provide an opportunity for young people to have an input into decisions that affect our community.
Our Involvement So Far
Since our establishment in 2022, DEVYAG has actively consulted with the Devonport City Council, Volunteering Tasmania Inc and Libraries Tasmania with numerous policies, strategies and initiatives.
DEVYAG has also attended Tasmanian Youth Forum (TYF) which allowed them to to come together with other youth leaders to share their view and opinions on youth issues.
It also provided them a chance to share ideas and potential solutions to issues effecting the youth of Tasmania.
We’d love to have you on our team!
