Stand Tall is increasing access to its entrepreneurial and digital pathways programmes to include a more diverse group of rangatahi. They are adapting existing content, piloting programmes with new partner organisations, and co-designing solutions to address continued barriers.  A training programme for facilitators is also being developed to ensure sustained delivery. 

The drive behind this initiative

Many youth do not currently have access to entrepreneurial and digital skill capability pathways particularly within the digital and technology space. As a result of these barriers, visibility and opportunities are limited. Businesses are not necessarily youth-ready and youth, not necessarily work-ready. 

Approach to change

Stand tall uses an experienced-based methodology which involves cross community partnerships working together to bring transformational change for youth.

Impact for Equity

  • Democratised access to entrepreneurial and digital tools, resources and the know-how to participate in and create social innovation.
  • Relationships between youth, employers and the community are leading to opportunities and increased career pathways for a more diverse group of youth.

About

Stand Tall

Stand Tall is a community-led initiative that promotes systems change by providing opportunities for youth to build their digital and entrepreneurial capability. A cross-sector approach supports youth employment pathways via provision of an environment that enables creativity and development of (soft) skills, tools and a ‘mindset’ of innovation.
