One of the key ways DSF achieves it's aims is to work in partnership with other organisations, initiating practical projects that respond to some of the issues identified through our research. Here you will find the projects that DSF is currently involved with. We have also included some past projects that we believe might still be of interest. Many of them have freely available resources. | Indigenous Reports | | Keeping Up and How Young Indigenous People are Faring, two reports from DSF and Reconciliation Australia, draw attention to the facts, and the people who are working to improve the levels of education, training and employment of Indigenous people in this age group. It’s not just about measurement. It’s about what programs work, and how best they can be supported. | | Y Green | | Developing a residential sustainability project where young people are trained and subsequently employed to conduct home sustainability consultations in their local community. | | Learning Choices | | Programs and people actively involved in engaging young people whose learning needs are not being met in a mainstream curriculum with diverse, innovative and sometimes unique learning opportunities. | | Youth Mentoring Network | | Information about programs, practitioners, training, tools and resources for those interested in youth mentoring. | | Try-A-Trade Croc Skills | | An engaging and simple activity involving schools, community and skilled workers in providing hands on 'try a trade' opportunities. Includes an overview of a project and a "How-To" manual. | | Plan-It Youth | | An innovative mentoring project offering young people who are at risk of leaving formal education/ training early, the opportunity to find a positive way into further training or employment. | | The Green Team | | The Green Team and their Initial Environmental Review at the WorldSkills Australia Nationals, Sydney 2008. |
