2023 Youth Mentor Program: Kokoda

A major Kokoda challenge helped young people complete the program by putting their new confidence, resilience and teamwork into practice.

The 2023 Youth Mentor Program finished with a significant Kokoda challenge for the young people involved.

The experience gave participants the chance to apply the skills they had developed throughout the program, including teamwork, resilience, communication and self-belief.

It remains an important part of the Foundation’s history of using real challenge to create lasting personal growth.
