In 2020 and 2021, the Youth Equality For All project provided CoRE members with information and insights into young women’s experiences of inequalities during COVID -19 and beyond, with a focus on the impacts on mental health and employment for young women in the Grampians region.

WHG employed two Youth Equality Advocates, Ayak and Karissa – young women with lived-experience of employment and connection challenges during the pandemic. A range of resources were developed on young women’s experiences of COVID and mental health, employment, and use of public space.
