  • The     BYM Summit brings together 100 of the country’s most talented, dynamic, creative young people from all disciplines to meet in Sydney for five intensive days. At the annual Summit, delegates share dialogue around some of the most crucial issues facing society. Throughout the course of the week, these enthusiastic young delegates are exposed to internationally-respected social entrepreneurs, and socially responsible corporations, who give them the tools to turn their passions into tangible initiatives.


    The purpose of the BYM Summit is to allow these exceptional individuals to collaborate on the development of new social initiatives which they will ultimately launch and run themselves. Through the experience of the Summit and participating in the development of new initiatives, the Brightest Young Minds delegates are inspired by what they can achieve for themselves and for others. They remain grounded and cognoscente of how difficult change is to bring about but they will lead with discipline, commitment and, most importantly, success. They will be emulated by others, setting off a ripple effect through the youth of Australia.

     



  • Teach For Australia     is a dynamic, new non-profit organisation confronting educational disadvantage in     Australia. Part of a large network of similar programs overseas, we are creating a global movement to change the way society leaders view education, and ensure every child receives educational opportunity.

    We recruit, train and support university achievers and leaders from all disciplines, and place them immediately in charge of a classroom in a disadvantaged school to teach.  

    However, we are more than just a social movement, or an ‘alternative career path’. TFA is a two-year graduate development program, offering participants a unique blend of teaching, corporate development and leadership training – an experience liberating you from the 9 to 5 desk job, an experience that develops your skills, an experience where you can make a real difference...an experience unlike any other.

    We are partnered with the federal government and top corporations, such as Freehills, Google, McKinsey, Microsoft, Corrs Chambers Westgarth and The Boston Consulting Group. Our counterparts in the UK (Teach First) and USA (Teach For America) are regarded as some of the nations’ most selective and prestigious graduate schemes.
