ABOUT THIS PROGRAM
An official civic agency, not a simulation. Members research and write policy proposals that go to City Council, run events on local youth issues and advise on decisions that affect young Edmontonians, which makes it verifiable government experience rather than a mock exercise. Meetings are open to the public if you want to sit in before applying. Other Alberta municipalities run comparable youth councils or advisory committees, so if you are outside Edmonton, check your own city or town's civic agency listings for the local equivalent.
HOW TO APPLY
1 Review the details and eligibility on the official program site.
