Youth Advisory Group
YOUTHreach works with 18 representatives from across Europe. Together, they help drive our project forward.
Made by Youth, for Youth
At YOUTHreach, we believe that mental health solutions for young people should be shaped by young people. That’s why our Youth Advisory Group (YAG) is at the heart of everything we do.
With 18 youth representatives from across Europe, the YAG ensures that youth voices are heard and valued at every stage of our work.
The YAG’s insights help us break down barriers and create mental health support that work for all young people—especially those from underrepresented groups.
What do the Young Advisors do?
- Shape the research by providing relevant input on what matters most to young people.
- Ensure inclusivity and co-guiding on ethical discussions.
- Act as ambassadors by sharing insights through social media, podcasts, and public events.
- Engage with policymakers to shape mental health policies that truly reflect youth experiences.
Building skills and leadership
As a member of our YAG you will receive training in public speaking, scientific literacy, and advocacy, empowering you to lead change.
You will also provide (or receive) peer support and guidance from other members of our team and be a valuable part of our supportive community.
Together, we’re not just talking about youth mental health. We’re changing it!
