July 2024

The Senate Committee on Indigenous Peoples is excited to launch Voices of Youth Indigenous Leaders 2024to spotlight the strengths of present-day First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities and their inspirational young leaders. 

Are you a young Indigenous leader who inspires and motivates others through your work, art, academic achievements or actions? Do you have ideas on how to reduce barriers for Indigenous youth or encourage youth leadership in First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities? The committee wants to hear from you on these themes or any other matters of importance to you and your peers!

Indigenous youth leaders, aged 18 to 35, are invited to share their leadership experiences and ideas with senators. To apply, you can either: 

  • Submit a short text (500 words), formally known as a “brief,” that will inform the committee’s work; or
  • Submit a digital version of artwork, a song, a short video (max. 3 minutes) or creative writing (poetry, song lyrics, short story, etc.) accompanied by a short statement (max. 500 words) describing your piece, its themes, your goals and/or your vision. 

Some participants will also be invited to attend an official committee meeting in October 2024 to highlight their leadership efforts. 

Submit your application online or by mail before Sunday, July 21, 2024, and you could be invited to appear before the Senate Committee on Indigenous Peoples in Ottawa!
