University of Wollongong | Youth Enagagement Program

We wish to engage young people in the Illawarra through a program teaching them how to DJ with the possibility of teaching them how to start their own business.

People aged 15-19 living in the Illawarra can participate.

Ideally we would like to get local community members to nominate marginalized young people to participate in the program, however it is open to everyone!

We will be selecting participants from the pool of applicants based on who stands to benefit the most from participating.

If you know anyone who stands to benefit from the program please nominate them; alternatively encourage them to register athttp://enactusuow.org/register.html

Participants can choose either to register themselves, or local community members can nominate people who they believe will benefit from the experience.

If you would like to know more about the program feel free to call Luke on 0450 390 176 or have a look at our: Website:http://enactusuow.org/dj.html
