Engagement

Thousands of young people participate in Act Belong Commit YOH Fest events held across Western Australia, presenting their items in some of the best regional venues around, to hundreds of audience members. YOH Fest patrons, Prof. Fiona Wood, Minster David Templeman and  City of Mandurah Mayor Rhys Williams all consider themselves to be YOH Fest’s biggest fans.

The festival is recognised by Healthway as WA’s leading forum for youth Health education through the arts.  The key objective of YOH Fest is to educate and empower young people throughout the state to enable them to make positive and healthy lifestyle choices.  Participants not only gain leadership skills, they build on their self-confidence and respect for others, as well as an understanding of important youth health issues.
