Announcing the ten Challenge teams

We're thrilled to present the ten teams selected for the “Youth Flourishing in North Auckland” Innovation Challenge!

Over the past ten months, Ember Innovations, Managed Moves, and Paihere Charitable Trust have collaborated with communities across North Auckland to understand youth needs. Our call for innovative solutions to transform the youth experience attracted remarkable proposals. From these, our community panel identified ten standout teams.

Each team will spend the next four months working with their coach and a supportive network, testing and refining their plans to positively impact youth mental health. Dive into each team's journey below. Join us (and them) for a fun and inspiring showcase event on August 10th and stay in the loop by signing up. Click here to register for the event.

Participating teams are eligible for our $100k Innovation Grant. We're actively seeking partners to increase this grant, fostering more innovative change. Be part of this transformative journey!
