Our Projects
Rerenga Awa | Canterbury Youth Workers Collective has a long and rich history. Under the care and guidance of our staff, collaborators, and volunteers, the Collective has been involved in many different projects over the years. Although some of these projects have run their course, there are some which we still umbrella, and others which have spun off and into their own entity.

Scope assessments measure an organisation’s effectiveness with regard to youth development, programme design, governance & management, community connectedness and safe practice. The assessment focuses on how an organisation is doing in both its practice and systems. This comprehensive approach allows an organisation to focus on the key areas of improvement.
