Involve is more than a conference.

It is an experience.

A meeting of hearts and minds.

Bringing together 700 diverse people who work with young people: youth workers, policy analysts, peer support workers, health workers, youth health and development providers, practitioners, clinicians, educators, professionals, young people, counsellors, social workers and more.

Involve aims to inspire, inform encourage and challenge.

The conference aims to reflect and connect the diversity of people who work with and for young people.

Involve 08 is brought to you by the New Zealand Association for Adolescent Health and Development with support from the Ministry of Youth Development and Wellington City Council, and in partnership with the National Youth Workers Network Aotearoa.

Involve 08 builds on biennial conferences organised by NZAAHD since its inception in 1989.

• put you in touch with other people in the youth sector,
• give you the chance to hear from leading youth health and development researchers, policy-makers and grassroots practitioners,
• provide you with the chance to hear from leading international experts,
• and provide you with an opportunity to share your experiences in working with young people; or present new research and information.
