The project encourages multiracial and Indigenous young people to work together to identify anti-racism strategies and to develop and endorse of an anti-racism policy for their school communities. This will provide the young people with confidence to impart their skills, knowledge and values to other young people through a peer education model. The project will involve 120 students, from years 5, 8 and 10, in metropolitan Melbourne and the rural community of Echuca developing communication links, sharing ideas and participating in two major meetings (one in Melbourne and one in Echuca).

The Western Young People's Independent Network will work with the Equal Opportunity Commission to address issues of racism and cultural diversity amongst multicultural youth and the way in which racism impacts on their development and mental health. The young people will begin by identifying issues of racism and cultural diversity through a youth forum. The second part of the project will train young people as anti-racism mentors to deliver peer education.
