TIME COMMITMENT: Approximately 12 hours per week (varies)

ABOUT THE AYCC
Established in early 2007, The Australian Youth Climate Coalition (www.aycc.org.au) unites over 60,000 young Australians and all major Australian youth organisations to build a generation wide movement to solve climate change. We educate, empower, inspire and mobilise young Australians to solve climate change, through short-term political impact and long-term cultural change.

ABOUT POWER SHIFT
In 2009, the AYCC ran the largest ever youth conference in Australia, the 2009 Sydney Power Shift for 1500 young people. This incredible event kick started a national movement of young people. In 2010, the AYCC took the Power Shift concept on the road, with regional Power Shifts held in Canberra, Adelaide and Geelong for over 500 young people. In 2011 Power Shift returns, this time in Brisbane and Perth, for two inspirational, empowering conferences. Each Power Shift conference will be a three-day event, with high profile keynote addresses from Australia’s foremost climate change campaigners, interactive workshops and skills training, media stunts, social events and grassroots movement building!

ABOUT THE AYCC
Established in early 2007, The Australian Youth Climate Coalition (www.aycc.org.au) unites over 60,000 young Australians and all major Australian youth organisations to build a generation wide movement to solve climate change. We educate, empower, inspire and mobilise young Australians to solve climate change, through short-term political impact and long-term cultural change.

ABOUT POWER SHIFT
In 2009, the AYCC ran the largest ever youth conference in Australia, the 2009 Sydney Power Shift for 1500 young people. This incredible event kick started a national movement of young people. In 2010, the AYCC took the Power Shift concept on the road, with regional Power Shifts held in Canberra, Adelaide and Geelong for over 500 young people. In 2011 Power Shift returns, this time in Brisbane and Perth, for two inspirational, empowering conferences. Each Power Shift conference will be a three-day event, with high profile keynote addresses from Australia’s foremost climate change campaigners, interactive workshops and skills training, media stunts, social events and grassroots movement building!
