Future Water Voices Youth Panel

As part of our customer engagement for the Price Submission and Urban Water Strategy, we’ve launched our Future Water Voices Youth Panel — and we’re looking for young people aged 16–21 to get involved.

This is your opportunity to help shape decisions about pricing, investment, and the future of water in our region.

As a panel member, you will:

• Explore how water is managed in our region
• Visit sites and hear from industry experts
• Work with other young people to develop ideas and recommendations

Your input will help shape the decisions we make about pricing, investment, and the future of water in our region.

The panel will meet up to 8 times between July and November 2026. Sessions include a mix of in-person and online, with most online sessions held mid-week in the evening (up to 2 hours).

Because this is a small working group, we’ll ask you to commit to attending all sessions.

What’s in it for you?

• Receive $300 as a thank you for your time and contribution
• have your voice heard
• meet new people
• build confidence speaking up and working in a group
• get insight into careers you might not have considered
