Political Participation Via the internet- Queensland Government

The Queensland Government has provided a youth initiative site which helps get 12 to 25 year olds more involved in their community.

There are opportunities such as becoming part of the Queensland Youth Council which provides advice to the Minister in regards to development of policies, programs and services.

Indigenous Youth Parliament also exists which allows the indegenous to speak out about decisions that affect their community.

Another way to participate is by looking at Get on Board- This outlines how you can become a part of Government Boards and Commmitees.

Finally, 'Get Involved' also shows how you can have a say about issues being considered by the Government and also how to participate in your community.
