ANZ YP meeting with Alex joining us


During the IET ANZ YP meeting in Auckland, we had good discussions with Alex about different issues and it was our first time to invite the Main Committee/Senior Committee members to join the meeting, we learnt a lot from their feedback..  The Leadreship Program video (by WA YPS) was first shown at the meeting, everyone is impressed by the team doing such a great job! This will be used to promote the LP in 2018!


 A fruitful and enjoyable time in Auckland, I look forward to the next Asia Pacific Volunteers Conference and to meet up with the WA volunteers in Australia!
