Koorie Youth Council (KYC) is based on the lands of the Kulin Nation in Melbourne. KYC gives our deepest respect to people of the Kulin Nation, in particular, to all Elders past, present and emerging for their knowledge, wisdom and legacies that continue to drive us as we walk a path toward positive social change. We also acknowledge all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and pay respect

Thank you to all the mob for coming out for our 20th Anniversary celebration!

The team at KYC wish to extend our gratitude for the support, care, and love from the incredible Koorie community. We couldn't do what we do without the hard work, passion and vision of our Elders, our Executive, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people we represent and our partnered organisations. KYC will continue to advocate and support young mob into the future.

Thank you to all the deadly artists, performers, speakers, workshop facilitators, tech crew, caterers and stallholders for contributing to this event.

Our Story

The Koorie Youth Council (KYC) is the representative body for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people in Victoria. Led by an Executive of 15 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people and our state-wide members, KYC values the diversity and strength of young people as decision-makers. KYC advocates to government and community to advance the rights and representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people. By hosting events like the annual Koorie Youth Summit, KYC brings Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people together to amplify their voices for social change. 


The Koorie Youth Council are supported by the Department of Premier and Cabinet's Aboriginal Victoria.
